Change the caption from <BR/><BR/>"Ranhill Bhd strikes oil"<BR/><BR/>to<BR/><BR/>"MARKET RUMOUR: Ranhill Bhd strikes oil?"<BR/><BR/>2. Put a Disclaimer at the bottom of the article such as:<BR/><BR/>"DISCLAIMER: This is a market rumour which has not been substantiated by the company as fact. Speculate on rumours at your own risk."<BR/><BR/>If the Star is unable to do these 2 things, or to clearly differentiate rumours from facts, then, we - as a society - should never allow such rumour reporting by the Star. It would be a huge misabuse of power by the Star.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Seng.Senghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08265958046623158053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17708300.post-26762454930915015932007-06-19T08:32:00.000+08:002007-06-19T08:32:00.000+08:00It's only wise that bursa or the star themself tak...It's only wise that bursa or the star themself take actions to curb such unscrupulous reporter or perhaps we should call 'syndicate' from abusing their position to mislead the public. Whether they gain anything from such practice is unknown to many...it's only logical to say yes, since evidence has showed trends of repetition which proves deliberate intention...ToeBearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11266670964783023543noreply@blogger.com
