I am reminded of Russia, where the television news stations are tools of the government-mafia oligarchy, but make sure to air the occasional late-night interview with some dissident – carefully selected for his squirrely appearance and checkered background. The illusion of “balance” makes the propaganda all the more insidious.


i can think of the bright side. the public doesnt know anything about naked shorting.

this is giving a signal for the shorters to start covering and for the sec and the treasury to be able to pass a stop naked shorting rule

how do the reverse ETF's find the shares to short? they are probably all naked shorting

well there's a reason for naked shorting to be in the news: the SEC is holding an emergency international meeting on monday to discuss short selling. seems rather low profile in the news. perhaps they're toothless and nobody cares. or perhaps they want some shock and awe.
