New Development with DGIV... Please Read. I debated whether or not to make this public (or when to do so) because I don't want my DGIV position to tank. Because if you don't do your OWN due diligence on stocks, there is always the potential to get burned. But it seems like a lot of people are buying this on the basis that this is an unpaid, unsolicited news articles in IBD. And I wouldn't have questioned it until a poster in this room wrote that the Corporate News section has to do with paid public announcements of companies and not unpaid news articles. Being the curious person I am, I decided to call DGIV's IR, yet again, to confirm that it was indeed NOT a paid article(s) as I was originally told. The story had changed. Here is the current story as told by the IR hired by DGIV. Investor's Business Daily called Liberty for information concerning DGIV. And said they wanted to do article. It was then found out that Investor's Business daily was charging for this article. That's the story. Yes, there will be 3 articles of DGIV in next weeks IBD -which is positive because it will give DGIV more coverage, however, it is not the unpaid article I was originally told. I was originally told it was not an ad or paid feature and would be on the front page of the newspaper. It now looks to be something paid and in the corporate news section of the IBD. No misintention on my part. I have only repeated what I have been told on a daily basis from Liberty's reps. I spoke to some friends who hold this stock. Some care about this, some really could care less. However, I didn't want a dumping of the stock next week when people would figure this out on their own. Hope this helps! Good Trading! -DavidCG
