copy of email I sent to Forbes editors@forbesbest.com Dear Editors: As an investor, one of the first things on my due diligence list is personally contacting the company not only to verify information I've uncovered, but also to get a feel from the officers as to their plans for their company. Just curious, but I was wondering what any of the Forbes editors would do if they were aware of a particular reporter writing an article on a company without at least attempting to interview one or more officers of the company? I can't imagine such shoddy reporting being tolerated for more than a New York minute by any one on your editorial staff. Yet I find that I am alarmed that you have honored a 'Suspicious' site as one of the 'Best of the Web': napeague.com I couldn't help but be befuddled by the 'Notice' written at the bottom of web page: 'This analysis is based on publicly-available information and is no way warranted by me as to accuracy or completness. I do not guarantee to advise you as to any change in this information.' What could be the author's intent, I wonder, when he isn't willing to verify, to the best of his ability, his commentary on a particular company? It leaves me speechless, not to mention suspicious. I am awaiting a rapid reply from the Editors of Forbes Best so that I can revive my rapidly failing confidence in a magazine I hold in respect. Sincerely,
