lies, damned lies and the afr

The Australian Financial review has outdone itself in its negative bias against SDL this morning.

An article on page 18, titled "Sundance families sue over crash" by Ayesha de Kretser practically talks about nothing else but the possibility of more bad news for SDL because of the families legal action regarding the plane crash two years ago.

In it she mentions only in passing the FRIB's positive decision of yesterday and the rest of the whole article (one full column) talks about nothing else but all the negative aspects that could hurt the company because of this.

And to add insult to injury she finishes the article with this last sentence:

"Sundance shares FELL [my emphasis] 7.4 per cent to 36 cents on Friday."

I have already sent a strongly worded 'Letter to the Editor' to the AFR asking for a correction and I would like to ask the many shareholders who might read this to do the same.
