Maybe those Business Wire people sell a two week pass to push a press release out everyday for two weeks for one low price. (All verified and cleared for accuracy by the Business Wire Quality Control Staff, of course.)

They had that one ticket left so they figured maybe just go ahead and use it?

I didn't believe that release was real until I checked it out for myself. What a joke

Lol, MB, great find.

I couldn't believe it before I have seen it with my own eyes.
