I only saw several people here on this thread said something good about that Motley Fool article on THQI, but haven't heard anybody mentioned that they misrepresented the information in a big way. Or am I the only one who read this article carefully? Here it is:

This is from that article:
<< For now, analysts expect THQ to earn only $0.14-$0.18 cents for the current quarter,

Correction: On Yahoo site, according to First call, the expected earnign for this quarter is 28 cents, 100% higher than Fool's low end figure.

The Fool article claims:
<<The WCW license (purchased from Ted Turner) accounted for almost 50% of the company's revenue in 1997.

Correction: 39% of 1997 revenue.

These figures really made me think twice about any articles from Motley FOOLs. However, they do have some influence. What a pity.
