  • Options Trader: Thursday Outlook [View article]
    Eric Savitz (or someone from Barron's) has deleted two of my posts to his articles. Neither of them had profanity, or any bad language. The first one was a set of statistics regarding the # of applications downloaded to Apple's 3G Phone prior to launch that was posted on MacObserver (approx. 25K paid, and 250K free). I didn't think anything of it at the time, but I just posted to another one of his articles asking him what his justification was for writing an article titled "Apple: The economy is depressed." that quoted the legal disclaimer that is in all company's filings about forward looking statements. This article was posted around 12 PM. An hour later, around 1 PM, he posted another article titled "Amazon: Recession? What recession?", and didn't quote the legal disclaimer about forward looking statements that Amazon had in their filings in that article. I said that I was starting to believe the Apple lover's who criticize him for having a bias against Apple and asked him for his justification for the discrepency. So, I am posting to Seeking Alpha to ask if I did something wrong in my posts? I didn't use any profanity, and was simply quoting some statistics in one post, and asked him why there was what I perceived to be a discrepency in his reporting on another. And if there was nothing wrong with those posts, is it ethical or legal for him / Barron's to just delete any post that they want? Not making accusations, was just curious as to why my posts were deleted.
