When bullshit talks, does money walk?

In the maybe-news today is popular blogspam site Engadget.  They deviated from their usual “rehash some other blog” model that allows them to participate in the endless circle of blogspam “reporting” with hilarious results.

A “trusted” source sent them an email that was circulated at Apple claiming the iPhone and OS X Leopard would be delayed till October and January respectively.

They were wrong, which is hardly news, but the results of their post were news.  Apple’s stock dropped about $4 a share – each dollar representing close to a BILLION dollars in value to the company), and people lost lots of money.

All I can say is, lol @ engadget. And double lol @ any retard who thinks recycling what other people are writing makes anyone an authority.
