CNBC is already going to do this. You don't think this isn't part of their strategy? As for the astuteness of the directors, I didn't exactly see any insider buying under $5 a share.

CNBC conscientiously or un-conscientiously has reason to be a little less than objective in
their reporting, just like brief.com,


ztect, forget CNBC or Briefing.com and probably Barrons this weekend, the real rude awakening will come when MKTW debuts. Stay tune. I haven't loaded up on my short so you won't hear much from me.

Regards,

Tom

no doubt. I'm sure Marketwatch will be very successful and innovative, and I am sure they will create gobs and gobs of value. But the issue for the next few days is where does DBCC stock belong after the IPO prices and starts trading. Will it really come at 12, 13, or 14 and trade up to 300 with a $4 billion valuation? CBS just paid a very soft $30 mil for half. Maybe they made the greatest investment of all time. I just think they will need to wait more than a year or two to realize a 40x return on their money. As will you.
