So... let me get this straight. If a media outlet releases "financial information" about a company, which they calculated without the actual company's data, to the public, which may influence its stock due to the media outlet's "reputation" (even though any information it obtained is either through underhanded information exchange, or violation of agreements with companies that the company in question deals with... hmm) that's "okay", even though insider trading is illegal?

Fascinating.  So if you jump through a lot of hoops, you can lose the "rumor" tag, and everyone believes what you say is true?  Wall Street is like a game where the rules are made to be bent, eh?  Who here believes you can "win" in Vegas, if you have the "technique" down?  Just curious.
