Donald, You're pretty shameless. Exercising a little damage control are we? Spin Spin Spin... -- and even a lie it would seem. In any event, so as not to mislead the readers of this thread, the SEC said: > The Securities and Exchange Commission > ("Commission") deems it appropriate to institute > public cease and desist proceedings against > Donald A. Baillargeon ("Baillargeon"), individually > and doing business as Emerging Company Report > ("ECReport"), pursuant to Section 8A of the > Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act"). You stated: > 2. A more ambiguous section of the rule has to > do with the actual amount of the compensation. > Emerging Company Report accepts cash only and > understood the rule to be limited to stock > compensation. And the SEC stated: > Baillargeon also received, directly or indirectly, > compensation in the form of stock from two issuers > publicized in the ECReport Media. Like David asked -- did the SEC lie or did you? So how much more do you charge "to provide a national press release via Business Wire"? What of the compensation of only $2500? Volume discount? What are your personal holdings in these companies? > We simply offer a reciprocal forum where companies > can tell their story to viewers and viewers can > see and hear the people behind those companies. What was that comment about ""Pump & Dump" companies need not apply?" Donald, your credibility is shot. In choosing whether or not to believe the Securities Commission and yourself -- a program that chose to feature Thermo Tech -- a company that would seem to fit pump and dump to a T -- I think I'll go with the Securities Commission. Like Thermo Tech, you seem to be choosing to interpret a legal institution and spin the verdict into something it ain't. I can't believe you have the gall to post so clearly contradicting the SEC. In case you haven't read it: sec.gov As for calling you to discuss the issue -- who has the time? The order and the reasons for it seem quite clear. Clement
