Charles, I think you are out of bounds here with Kerry. What Kerry posted, was what I was referencing, which is that I believe that Stock-Line has promoted or been compensated for a number, if not all of the companies on their web site as the SEC has charged them for not disclosing their compensation. I think these interviews, without speaking to their truthfulness, are in effect "infomercials". The truthfulness part of it depends wholly upon the interviewee. I think it is quite fair to point out that this particular interview was likely a purchased event, as this is what the SEC has already charged Stock-Line with doing. The fault, if any, would be with Stock-Line in not reporting if there has been compensation. There is nothing wrong with commercials per se, unless the company denies it as well and it turns out that they did in fact pay.

I also think that Kerry acted quite responsibly, in further qualifying the links that he posted about the SEC charges against Stock-Line.

My personal opinion of the interview is that it served no great purpose, as there was certainly no new ground covered. So little was actually claimed by Alan Laffkas, that I can't comment on it's accuracy, as it was mostly quite general. Basically a non event is what I take away from it.

You know it has been said: A Cynic is a Person who knows the Price of everything and the value of Nothing.
