Which is not to say BS is limited to the show-biz-ad sections. A couple of "profs" have engaged in a HI-MOM! moment by insisting that TGSM lost his sponsors' shareholders up to $12 billion!!!!!!!!!! OR: To assess shareholder losses, the economists compared returns for Woods’ sponsors during this period to those of both the total stock market and of each sponsor’s closest competitor. Knittel and Stango also reviewed returns for four years before the car accident to determine how each sponsor’s market performance normally correlates with that of the total market and of competitor firms. And then they consulted two astrologists, three alchemists, a Gypsy fortune teller, and....but if TGSM created such devastating losses, would they be far worse if, say, their CEOs had all simultaneously resigned for sowing their wild oats? What about the employees they fire to no ill effect? What if they fired 50,000 at once? This blatherskite is an excuse to put U-C!!!!! (clap clap) Da-VIS!!!!! (clap clap) in newspapers, and Vic and Chris have surely demonstrated rather extensive credentials for LALA.
