Speaking of Merrill PR machine........

Maria should have asked Komansky if his feelings toward Blodget have changed. Keep in mind that it had been publicly documented that Blodget had used an expletive in describing some of his stocks prior to the following comments.

"Henry's reputation and quality of his work are above reproach," Merrill spokesman Rich Silverman told CNNfn. "It was through his efforts our technology research efforts reached the highs that it has. We wish him well."

A spokesman told BBC News Online: "Mr Blodgets' research has not been compromised. One must bear in mind that recommendations are exactly that, recommendations. Mr Blodget is a professional of absolute integrity. Merrill Lynch's compliance process is rigorous and designed to prevent the kind of conflict of interest falsely alleged."
