Greenberg. Iridiot or irresponsible?: Thanks to all who enjoyed this column's Iridiotic items on Iridium (IRID:Nasdaq). However, some readers agreed with Oscar Silva, who wrote: "As a journalist you should have learned by now that expressing your opinions can always generate emotional reactions, particularly when people lost money. Such reactions may be offensive or unfair to the author, as it could have been in this case against you, but that is no excuse for your insults. "You owe an apology to all the readers of TSC. I am taking the liberty to send this letter to your editors for them to judge." Be my guest. Investors who lost money with Iridium aren't Iridiots. Iridiots refers to Iridium investors who caused my Hostile React-O-Meter to spin outta control (outta control, I tell ya) for questioning the financials of Iridium before it fell like a, well, satellite out of the sky. Herb Greenberg writes daily for TheStreet.com. In keeping with TSC's editorial policy, he doesn't own or short individual stocks, though he owns stock in TheStreet.com. He also doesn't invest in hedge funds or other private investment partnerships. He welcomes your feedback at herb@thestreet.com. Greenberg also writes a monthly column for Fortune. © 1999 TheStreet.com, All Rights Reserved.
