The problem with 'journalism' today is that the so-called journalists have forgotten that it's not all about them- it's about the audience. The journalist is supposed to report the facts and the let the audience base an opinion off of those facts. An accompanying commentary isn't a bad thing, but both sides of the story need to be entertained.

Feuerstein, like NBC, doesn't get this; They think it's all about them. Rather than giving an unbiased report on a stock or news item, the likes of Feuerstein and Keith Olbermann (we'll use him as an example to represent NBC), would rather tell the audience what to think than to feed them enough information to come up with an opinion of their own.

In the investing world, an investor can ill afford this and the time spent reading a Feuerstein column would be better spent researching the market or looking for a better source of unbiased information.

Someone who reports opinion over fact, is far from a journalist, especially one that is a self-proclaimed skeptic that likes a 'good bear story'. That means that he is more likely than not to take a possibly good bull story and swing it into a bear story to suit his own satisfaction- and that can cost potential investors a lot of money.

Investors, do your own Due Diligence. That's the name of the game. Period.
