Apple's heart bleeds on fake Jobs data

 Look - I know everyone is hunting for a story, but really - this stupid piece of 'citizen journalism' has had its effect - and we suspect someone somewhere got rich on this. We're interested in seeing the appropriate SEC response. The heart attack rumour isn't true, but for its effect - well -  just look at the chart. We wish Apple would trust us more, and CNN less. 

Updated, quite like this opinion, and we'd like to stress that bloggers didn't do this, a reputable news org did, before the debate becomes one aimed at citizen journalism and misses the point of the lack of investment in news teams at major publishers - or the need to seek them out on the blog...
