Called them a very high risk company due to many problems

These clowns won't like it until the stock price goes up, he wouldn't want to risk upgrading something that hasn't gone up already (I think this is the risk he's talking about). Think about how much crappolla you have to take on this board for recomending a buy and then having the stock move down from your recomendation.

How much will it matter in 2002 when ATHM has 10 million subs and everyone is shaking their heads saying how surprised they are that AOL hasn't really done anything but move sideways for the last few years?

Banc of America Capital Mgmt. just destroyed ATHM on CNBC earlier.

Preston, Liu, and the gaggle of other analysts on CNBC that blast ATHM won't tell the public where the real problem lies. Rather than state the truth... that management doesn't know what they are doing, they veil that fundamental truth with "open access", "problems with T" and a myriad of other irrelevant excuses. One fellow on CNBC came close to the truth last week when he said that the company couldn't do anything right, but he stopped short of pointing a finger. Until AT&T overtly wrestles control from Tom Jermoluk and George Bell, nobody is gonna trust this company.

IMO, Jermoluk has played this company for his own personal gain, and at the expense of the public shareholder, since he sat down in the drivers seat. As to Bell, he has always had his head stuck in the sands of "content". If T thinks that they can gradually improve the reputations of these two, they are equally delusional. I suspect that the "street has similar feelings, and any remarks on CNBC are a "filtered" version of what the talking heads truly think.

This is, of course, JMHO... others might disagree.
