Fox Business Network Uses SEC Target To Comment On SEC
Reported by Ellen - October 22, 2009 -
A reader forwarded to us this subtle but unforgivable example of bias at the Fox Business Network. In a discussion about SEC enforcement against securities scammers, they chose Patrick Byrne, CEO of Overtstock.com which, itself, is the target of an SEC investigation. Byrne opined on the SEC's operations, including alleging that there's corruption and ineptitude at the agency, without revealing his own conflict of interest. None of the hosts told their audience either. Video from William K. Wolfrum Chronicles, which has more information on this, after the jump.
