Maybe they let him work it off by having Dutton tout the SEC for eight months?

U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
Litigation Release No. 19046 / January 21, 2005
SEC v. J.M. Dutton & Associates, LLC, 2:05 CV 106 (E.D. Calif.)
J.M. Dutton & Associates Consents to Judgment Imposing $25,000 Penalty for Violations of Disclosure Requirements of Securities Act Section 17(b)
The Commission filed a civil action against J.M. Dutton & Associates alleging violations of Section 17(b) of the Securities Act of 1933. The California company provides paid-for stock research reports that it publishes on its website. The Commission alleges that the company published stock research reports without fully disclosing that it received compensation from the issuers who were the subjects of the reports. The company, without admitting or denying the allegations, has consented to issuance of a final judgment imposing a $25,000 civil penalty.

The Commission also ordered the company president, John M. Dutton, to cease and desist from committing or causing any violation or future violation of Section 17(b), based on a finding that he violated Section 17(b) by publishing the research reports without fully disclosing the receipt of compensation from issuers. Dutton agreed to the order without admitting or denying the Commission's findings as to his conduct.

Where covering while yelling "short" does make sense is in situations similar to pump and dumps-- where a stock spikes on either hype or overreaction to good news. The reasoning is that, unlike pump and dumps, you didn't manufacture the situation and you truly think even people a little late to the party can make money. So is that front-running? As per the above, I think even Hansen doesn't quite know how to characterize it.

AP right here on SI claimed in public that he never ever covered into his own short calls:

7.) I never cover into any Short calls,,, ever, that is against everything I stand for !!
