After tracking the media articles for years I have no doubt that hedge funds and other large entities on Wall Street control certain elements....they certainly can and do use article timing and placement to accomplish manipulation.....If the public knew how rampant it was we might even get some government action and some of these pliant journalist ( as if that term fits) would be jailed...Just one more of the variables that needs to be considered as you attempt to figure out what's really going on.
