Stock promoter bashing the SEC over freedom of speech westergaard.com The full site isn't up yet but I have some parts of it here which he is sending to people mary.cc Westergaard believes that the SEC has violated his freedom of speech by not allowing him to tout stock scams and loser stocks like PLSIA, ASTN, UMCC... Imagine that. He believes his "cyberstations" i.e. paid company profiles, were expressions of his freedom of speech as an individual and a publisher. He believes that the SEC had a thing for him and just wanted to bankrupt a poor old dying man. No mention yet of him being sued for not having a disclaimer and for making impossible projections. Notice that most of his touts are bankrupt. I think he touted Edgar's for free just to try to look legit. Use the way back machine web.archive.org to see his missing disclaimer. He also used to have the Wall Street Journal ads on his site to look legit besides news feeds from legit sources to try and make him seem credible. Here is a pic of him that he will be showing on his site westergaard.com and this is what he really looks like. This is 2-3 years old. mary.cc If we have the right to say a stock sucks, he has the right to say it's great. When does freedom of speech become securities fraud?
