<So I guess people shouldn't listen to the SEC either? The fact is, 4 days ago the SEC issued a statement that they would aggresively pursue enforcement regarding the ad-bartering method of accounting.> If you read carefully, you'd see that the half-dozen worse offenders might have to restate revenues -20%. And none of those dirty half-dozen were exactly household names. So this ad-bartering thing is hardly the bubble-shattering development that you suggest. Shame on you!
