Why is it that journalists have a problem with normal english words like cooperation, substituting "coopetition" instead? What the hell does that actually mean??? I guess we are entering the era of english quantum mechanics where we just have a meaning probability assigned to each word.

How does this pseudo-news differ from what has been going on in markets forever? There are always layers of competition, cooperation, and different alliances at the same time. I think one of the functions of this thread should also be to criticise the media's coverage of these issues. The tech press is singularly incompetent when it comes to literate and insightful journalism.
