My 'intrusive inquiry' actually amounts to this: What are the broadcasters on CNBC, for example, 'required' to do, if anything, with their own investments? By law? i.e. Lou Dobbs, of the stone age. -g- Has he 'been allowed' to trade on his info all these years? Anybody know? Maria Baritoromo, I think, correct? is married to a hedge fund manager. So: can these 'mouthpieces' of the 24/7 broadcast world 'chat,' as they do all day/night long with 'each other,' and trade stocks, bluntly, based on the definitely 'pre-knowledge' -- or, rather, 'inside information,' -- they gather in order to 'objectively report' -- on global television? ????????????????????????? bia
