Watch for ABC's stock report

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

I just checked a minute ago and ABC said the dow was up with a plus sign And Fox reads it as down 230. What is it with ABC do they report the upswing and then keep it there ignoring the down until another upswing comes up again. This same discrepancy happened the other day. As far as I see it and it is my opinion that ABC can not be trusted EVER. I think they will do anything to hide the truth and this is intentional what do you think. C

Foxnews.com has had "-230" for days now. I think they have quit covering the market. ha!

Though, Glitch Central showed yesterday that the Dow ended at different values between CNN.com and NASDAQ.com at 4:00pm EST Market close. But one hour later CNN changed their figures to meet the Nasdaq figures. The NASDAQ was off too, but CNN didnt change it to match the NASDAQ.com figures until 7:30pm EST

Merlot where did you get that information about Fox. Fox has not been 230 for days. It has been up and down the scale. Please print the truth only. There are lots of people out there that know Fox stock report on the dow has not stayed 230 for days.

When I said Fox had reported the dow 230 I meant to say -230. Yes, Susy I think you are probably right. It is hard to tell who is telling the truth. My grandfather told me about an old quote. "The only one I can trust is thee and me, and sometimes I wonder about thee."

puuleeeze dont tell me not to say the truth. what are you a 5 minute wonder? i have been to foxnews.com 100 times in the past two days and it has stayed at -230 so please back-off.

i watch that site continously as i do nasdaq.com and cnn.com and abc.com and everything. NO THE FOXNEWS.COM HAS NOT BEEN GOING UP AND DOWN. 230 FLAT!!! Get your facts straight before you call me a liar.

Im sorry. Seriously though i have been to foxnews.com a hundred times in tpast 48 hours. It is still at -230.

I am not saying it is not a glitch, i think it is. i am just saying that it is static, from seemingly the last day it ended at -230, it has just stayed there.
