Maybe they sense a bail out, short
(teabag) squeeze, or shorts covering.
Some lib, hack, female in odumbos admin. from the la slimes, just spoke of how all newspapers should be bailed out so they continue being the publics “watchdogs.”
Though I swore she meant teabaging lapdogs.
It probably has to do with the Obama newspaper industry bailout package proposed.
No BS... Look it up !
Why the hell not include newspapers in the “Sucker Package”? Pretending they are needed as the government watchdogs, when they are nothing but leftist mouthpieces. Taking money out of the pockets of taxpayers that detest the corrupt media is something liberals would deem necessary.
2010 Throw the bums out
Nice "theories" ... but what is really going on with the stock? Just curious to know.
Tea party = ho-hum. Give it a rest. Please.
350,000+ attend Tea Party protests = Ho Hum
Obama's Black new Dog = riveting story.
What liberal media again?
Institutional unwinding. BOC (buy on close) raised the price 4 cents during settlement period, but for that volume it means that there was a seller and an short covering at the same time. Maybe a swap.
Wow...posts jamming it to the right wing wackos on the blog get erased...but the whackos can post whatever they want....nice!
11:09 -- the rules for leaving comments are pretty simple.
Next time, try "jamming it to the right wingers" without using profanity.
Profanity is out. Racism and swiping pictures from the Sacramento Bee is in.
5:02 go have a tea party with anderson pooper then
>9:48 PM
If you can't observe the rules then don't play in the sandbox. The site isn't yours and you can feel free to create your own sandbox at any time as a counterpoint. That's just good sense.
As far as bailing out newspapers goes all I can say is that the Obama Administration can't afford to lose such a valuable organ. But many papers will likely fall with one or two being officially saved to serve as such. After all, Soviet Russia only had ONE Pravda. It was all that was necessary.
And finally, as 9:15 PM put it so well: frustrated and angry people don't really seem to count when there's a "dog and pony show" going on over at the White House. If that isn't "in the tank" then I don't know what is. And frankly, I find it deplorable. Not only for the interests of the country in general but for the intergrity of journalism in particular.
