Anthony re journalist whores, CBS Marketwatch has been basing stories on what they read on Yahoo message boards! Honest, the whole basis of many recent stories is "a message board poster said that BOSTQ is likely to be acquired by MSFT at a handsome premium in a bidding war with McDonalds."

Anything said on a Yahoo message board is now considered sufficient for attribution by so-called "financial journalists".

I think a new rule is called for: Financial journalists should be REQUIRED to invest a significant part of their net worth in any stock they talk up, and they should be REQUIRED to maintain their position on that stock for no less than two years.

Then they would be a lot more careful about pushing a stock.
