Fine post,appreciate it.
I have a thick skin. That's not the issue.
I want to force IR and management's hands to go "public" with it's utterances, and stop using convenient conduits who can be trusted, to either keep the information "private" or post it as allowed and encouraged to do so by IR or management....specifically to public message boards.
Rocky's relationship with Huff is totally selectively over the top on disclosure. His board is private and very exclusive and not open to the public. For example, I am not allowed access to it. So all tidbits he gets from Huff and posts "exclusively" to his private site, I miss. BFD as they end up over here anyway.
The potential problem for all parties participating in this relationship of "convenience", is we face possible legal selective disclosure issues of pertinent and timely information or clarification of public PR disclosures of note, prior to it being made available to all shareholders by public access simultaneously. Many of us have no clue as to whether or not the information in our possession is "material" or not...we are not lawyers for the most part.
To this end, I have decided to stop all public postings of any email, phone, or IM exchanges with the company or its representatives from this date forward. I ask all other shareholders to do the same, if they feel we can make a point and a solution that benefits all shareholders at large.
For months now, I and many of you, have pleaded with IR and the company executives to set up a quick response Q and A section of the public web site for GTE, that all shareholders can access and an email alert through the existing system to explain critical issues (like the BONY boner), instantly.
It would streamline everything, reduce IR's time answering a ton of redundant calls, IM's and emails, get everyone access to information faster, and enable all of it to be quickly reviewed by legal inside for comfortable release. Most importantly, it takes "us" out of the convenient loop of the party game of "pass this message along please" that causes doubt and raises interpretation translation issues.
The current method in today's technology is archaic at best, begs human error, and is fraught with co-shareholder legitimacy concerns, with a high level of suspicion of intent.
Enough already...
