My comments

  • Please include in your follow up story the truth about how this rumor (and many others like it) have started. There was a thread posted yesterday on a large image board that went along the lines of "what rumor can we start today, give me your ideas". There was a slew of Palin suggestions (Palin had breast cancer, etc) but most people felt any rumors to do with the election would just be snowed under...so they jumped on the Jobs idea.

    "Some observers have speculated that someone may have posted the story to manipulate the stock market."
    This could not be further from the truth. These rumor are setup for fun (lulz), nothing more, nothing less. And the mass-media seem to fall for them every single week. In reply to: "SEC launches probe into phony Jobs heart attack report"
