Earlier this week there was an article in The WSJ regarding OPEC and US shale. Many folks who commented on the article thought is made no sense whatsoever. I didn't pay much attention to it, especially after reading this in the comment section:
One reporter has been writing about energy for the WSJ for three months. But she has a BA in Literature (Magna Cum Laude) from Harvard so I guess that qualifies her to write about energy.
The other reporter has been covering energy for the WSJ for 1 yr and 7 months. Prior to that role he was a Legal Reporter. But he has a Master's degree in Journalism so I guess that qualifies him.
So it's no surprise that they sound like they know little about the energy business. It is a common occurrence in the Wall Street Journal. This is what I am paying over $400 per year for. And they cannot even get the print version to me on a regular basis.
I,too, have a bone to pick with the WSJ. I'm OK with the $400/yr; leastwise, I was until several months ago when they sent me an opportunity to invite a friend to subscribe for $199/yr. So, I'm supposed to pay retail while serving as their marketing arm in Arizona? Is this a great country or what!
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty funny. Same with incentives for cable television, credit cards, new bank accounts, etc, but current customers only see price increases. LOL.
