Q. Is it or isn't it significant that wsj is a Dow Jones publication?............ .................................
Whatever relationship DJ has finally established with PNL, is there still a lingering animosity between the two?
Has this animosity impacted the objectivity of the reporting in BOTH Dow Jone's articles?
Neither article were/are completely negative or positive.
The first by Johanna relied on a very dubious source C & D? C & D has it's own problems with the SEC, and will have additional problems because of its supposed "analysis" of PNLK.
The second article deals directly with many topics that can be adequately supported/ retorted by the nature of the "Internet" industry. Namely, the issues regarding the need for start up capital, the "size" of the company et cetera.
This article, does raise concerns about the credentials of ProNetLink's founder. These concerns, however are left unverified, since important sources of information were"not available". Whether or not J.P.C's supposed or real claims of expertise are real may or may not have any real impact on this particular project. The nature of the financial rewards for both Mr. JPC and Mr. Zagoran, however rewarding, are NOT really that unusual when looked at in the context of any IPO, merger or other start-up. In an IPO in which I was offered the opportunity to get in early, I was offered shares at 20 cents. this company is now worth $25 on the Nasdaq. Unfortunately, I didn't buy in. I only mention this to put all these somewhat manipulative "assertions" into a greater context. So face it people we live in a Plutocracy... and contrary to what some may be led to believe, a Plutocracy isn't a government led by Mickey Mouse's dog.
Going back to the "size" of a company the article fails to mention ProNetLink's "associates" and the quality of who these people are. In not doing this, the DJ/wsj reporter doesn't accurately reflect the power of "outsourcing" to maintain lower overhead into today's business climate until growth, with the launch of a product, is necessary. This unfortunatley is a major omission.. Such an omission does to a certain degree undermine the writer's "objectivity" I am again providing below the full listing of ProNetlink's contacts. Before I do that however, here is the relationship betw. DJ and WSJ:
