Peace; CPQ..Reuters : I have some reservations about posting this to you but I think it is worth a note; It has to do with Reuters again..and CPQ.. the EC gave the ok today on the CPQ and DEC deal..if you care to check, Business Wire released it and had it on line,
over 1hr before Reuters.
--------------------------------
Business Wire stayed with Calling the European Commission just that.

Reuters danced between that and European Union of which the UK
really isn't..anyway the Business Wire release is more clear
to the point, and timly
------------------------
Business Wire 11:06 AM EST
Reuters 12:57 PM EST 1hr 51 min late..and why did they stall,
did some of them want to buy in before the release..
The timing of both CPQ and DEC going up leaves this late release by Reuters suspect.
---------------
I was wrong in thinking Yhoo gave Reuters an exclusive..as
Business Wire is on Yhoo..however the headlines seems to default to Reuters..if you Don't click on NEWs..even though Business Wire
had it first..it did not show up in the Headliners until
Reuters released it..1hr and 51 min late,
I suggest if your using YHOO and tracking
a stock not to count on the headliners..but click on news
as you may miss a timely update if you don't.
----------------------
Hope no one is offended but I still think Reuters SUCKS
