Leak or not, missing earnings is a career limiting move for management. And it was a HUGE market reaction for an earnings miss, kinda implies that the market isn't convinced by the fundamentals of the stock.
Ouch!
Random question: How do I stop videos from auto starting on Bloomberg? I'm running Safari with no Flash, and have Ad-block on. Video doesn't start, but audio does. Super Annoying.
I don't even bother running an ad-block, because disabling plugins is so effective at suppressing annoyances.
I remember that CNN was all Twitter all the time a few years ago. I haven't watched until today for Baltimore info. No mention of Twitter in the last six hours of watching.
This probably shouldn't be surprising news but it has some shock value. Twitter is very close to what some would consider a model civic communications platform. I remember hearing one tech pundit refer to it as "citizen's band radio for the 21st century." The idea that such an effective tool needs to generate revenue a la Facebook seems odd, even though I understand that it operates like any other business entity.

I watched the coverage all day yesterday. The police were talking about their Twitter as the official way to stay updated, and the news anchors frequently were talking about who tweeted what. Maybe CNN just has something against Twitter now, who knows.
Why use a 24 hour news network when you can just get on-the-ground views from Twitter? That's probably what they have against it.

Related, it would be great for HN to be able to tag stories as having auto-playing audio, a paywall, modal ads, and other undesirable elements of a posted story's site.
