Richard, I honestly don't like the imperfections in the internet highway billboard that allow for so much deceit to be filtered into the investing arena. But singling Business Wire out for a persecution party to make a case for all the inadequacies in truthful and verifiable information disseminated through the wires and via the internet in general, is hugely unjust and unfair. Business Wire has to "trust" the honesty and integrity of it's subscribers, just as we have to try and trust honesty and integrity in the people we all associate with in our "professional" relationships. Can't expect Business Wire to be psychic with the ability to auto-kick untruths.
