Her comment is so perceptive Even though the post was from the WSJ, making news of news can be newsworthy without having to check the facts. I wonder if anyone actually rang Exxon Mobil Corp for a comment. That would be what any good journo would do to check the facts. If not cynics may be justified in seeing this is just and increase circulation selling scam. Of course by Ralph sending it on and my twitter account picking up the post and broadcasting it top all my followers for the same newsworthiness value has also perpetrated it. Oh what a tangled web this is. Excuse the pun . I have to agree with Monika.
