LOL. You say opinion columns can't contain factual reportage? I suppose that if George Will stated in his opinion column that his wife had a baby or that he saw AlGore slip on a banana we have to consider that to be his opinion?

What is your problem, anyway? Do you just like to argue? Why do you want to carefully deconstruct sentences so that you can find some implied statement that was never said?

It's not my fault if you don't know the difference between an editorial-type column, in which someone gives his "take" and opinion on something, and a news report, which is supposed to contain just the facts of the matter.

The fact is that a rumor circulated at the end of the day and was immediately denied by the company. Cramer's opinion is that slimebags crawled out from under their rocks to intentionally and illegally spread false rumors to illegally manipulate the price of CSCO. I agree with this opinion, but it's not fact. For you to say that because it was in Cramer's column makes it a fact is ludicrous.
