Jon, the only source you offer in your list that was distributed for publication since the initiation of stock BB's in 1988 is the one cited below. Joseph R. Priester and Richard E. Petty, "Source Attributions and Persuasion: Perceived Honesty as a Determinant of Message Scrutiny," 21 Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin 637 (1995) Are you representing that this bulletin is a peer reviewed publication that examined stock BB's messages and concluded that shareholders positions or stance in posting about their company took positions that were biased and dishonest. The title is a very general one and this pub does not have the appearance of a peer reviewed publication. I very much doubt that there is any data here about BB's, shareholder's sentiments, measurements of bias or dishonesty about their postings, etc.. Are you further stating that your sentence, "The fact is, the fundamental stance of any shareholder on any message board is a biased and even dishonest one." is supported by this above reference?
