Hey I got one for you Dusty ... If a person knows someone is suspected of being a criminal or accussed of being one with a know record of lawsuits encourages some ignorant individual to spread misinformation thus affecting the price of a security are they guilty of stock manipulation? Are they not the vessel of use? Are they liable for the falsehood they spread? Are they liable for the character assassinations if they happen to get careless and actually accuse some of an illegal act?

Does the corporation not have a right to sue because of harm caused by the falsehood of information? Should a compnay sue because some individual dares to call the company not "legit"?

I seem to remember a univesity that called a product a scam and in two days sent an apology and that the individual who they talked to misunderstood and twisted what they were told? Interesting is that person liable for the mis interpretation of what they heard?

Just curious. Because we can go on and on about this. I like this though and hoping we get a legal mind or attorney on here also.
