Cameron, Yes, exactly. The fact that Faber chose to infer that the lack of a callback was a sign of bad business practice shows a lack of understanding of the difference between the real business world and the fantasy business world. CNBC is necessarily focused on the stock price of a business, this does not mean that the business should in turn give the short term stock price the same level of priority as CNBC might. And if they choose to give it the same priority, they should take the necessary time to gather all of the facts before responding. The word "insinuate" is exactly the word that I should have used and I believe that the transcripts will reflect that there was an insinuation as described. "The company didn't return my phone call, they are evidently not ready to make a statement about the matter." This would be an example of objective reporting of the situation. I agree 100% JXM
