The point is this. Don't you find the Botanica article you posted a least bit fishy, given what Jack said?

On June 3 AOL signed *exclusive* with The Fragrance Center, which sells the same "fragrance and body products" as does Garden Botanica.

When someone followed up with a comment that the article appears to be "another puff piece". You replied:

Oh, so this also classifies as another rumor. Go figure. I posted the link to an article, which talks about Garden Botanica and how they are looking for possible marketing deals. So, this must be another one of those bull rumors...

Your willingness to look over this kind of "reporting" is the point, which you missed. Do you or do you not find the article questionable? If you do, then admit it. If not, it makes us wonder how many other questionable aspects of AOL you are overlooking.
