Re: Media Spin

John: <<How about a story of how the analysts are getting out of the business and going somewhere else because of online trading... like Kurlak... and how they are being held increasing accountable to a wired trading public for their supposed unbiased market predictions....the Niles vs Dellheads would fit nicely in there. Ahhh yes! The more subversive, the better...>>

Yeah, I agree, Kurlak and Niles are two perfect "news hooks" for the story. And the above is the perfect spin.

Jon,
Give me a break. Dell goes down 12 points and the Dellheads are getting ready for 'Watergate (excuse me, Dellgate) 2'.... The internet stocks make far more compelling stories than this one ever will (at least so far <ggg>). The press wants to talk about the guys who put market orders in on internet IPO's and got killed. They could care less about sour grapes from one analyst's call on Dell that made the stock drop what Yahoo might move in 10 minutes....

Wake up,
John
