Six face insider trading charges (via BBC)

Okay. So this is insider trading, not media manipulation of stock prices. But nice to see some people going to jail for white collar crimes, for a change. As far as I’m concerned, all of these guys are screwing up the economy, playing games with people’s retirement funds. They’re far more dangerous than crack addicts or illegal immigrants could ever be. I only hope the charges stick.
