His statement is a little weak in my mind.
Shorts could just exit now before ex-dividend date, and reshort after. Hell, they could BUY after exiting the short position, get the dividend, then sell after ex-div and reshort. Only those not watching would have to pay the dividend.
The point is that his statement makes no sense, and I'm not even a 'shorter' of any stock.
