Iso - the European Press called "us" out on yesterdays prop job.

Sadly Cnbc, TheStreet.Com and the rest of the US Media didn't have the cojones to even "question" let alone attack the "integrity" (rather, the lack thereof) in yesterdays prop-job rally.

The European Press basically called it a "PPT" rally - as it obviously was... and their markets didn't buy it either - as they sold off.

This is a farce and it's a crisis in journalistic integrity imho.

CNBC blew it here... that they didn't even "touch" this one... says it all.

I really thought Ron Insana last night was going to ask "the question" and challenge some of the pundits on the integrity of the rally and the "real source" of the move etc.

...but, he didn't.

Then, I thought this morning; that my favorite crumudgeon - Mark Haines would... but, he didn't either.

I'm assuming that they were either warned not to by management... or, that they all realize it's an unwritten policy and a sure career "Kiss of Death" if they did.

Sad, but true.

I guess we'll have to tune into the Euro Media to get integrity from this point forward...(vbg).
