Ketsbaia Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 And is Caulkin on some round-the-world cruise or something? It's a bloody long holiday. Is this serious? He could be writing a book etc. Well of course he could be - point being, he's been quiet on Twitter for a long time. Just re-tweets and replies.

BlueStar Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 The releases by the BN Group were distributed by PR Newswire in the past two months. One of them, issued on July 10, was titled Welcome To NETX - Global Conglomerate Bellagraph Nova Group Launches Latest Technolgy (sic) Platform Focusing On AI + Robotics + Healthcare. Technolgy stonks are strong at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying going after the Chronicle, Mail, Telegraph, Guardian journalists. Not an investigative bone in their bodies. Read Twitter and write a piece about 5 things I've made up!

Unless it was just an interview and reported as one, rather than taking a single source as gospel That's fine in most scenarios, but with one source (we are assuming) involved in a highly confidential process, I'm not sure how feasible that is.

In that case a decent journalist wouldn't report as fact, and would write as an opinion piece. Probably not feasible to report with checks, but that should have been made clear.

You are literally spouting complete and utter gibberish like. I don't know how thick people have to be to see it the way you do, but George has made it abundantly clear every time he's shared his bits of info that "the buyer's believe...", "it's from the buyer's", "the buyer's have been told there are no red flags". All of those things are true, or were true at the time of reporting. As far as I'm aware, as someone who knows George a little bit, he hasn't once said that "THE TAKEOVER WILL BE APPROVED ON DAY XYZ". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying news should have confirmed and verified sources is hardly gibberish. George may have had a confirmed source, but was never verified. Reading his pieces he only hints at this but does present it as fact even though technically he doesn't. His reports convinced a lot of people that he actually had an insight into what was going on, which over the last few weeks has been revealed as to be not the case.
