Sharesleuth is Up and Running! Sort of.
There’s not much there yet but Sharesleuth.com has officially launched. The new website aims at uncovering corporate misdeeds. It’s being written by veteran reporter Christopher Carey and, err, underwritten by Mark Cuban. When the project was announced it generated some controversy because Cuban said he planned to trade on information uncovered by the site’s reporter.
Cuban’s apparently sticking by his plans. According to the first entry on Sharesleuth, “In certain instances, the majority partner of Sharesleuth.com is going to make personal investments based on information we uncover. Those investments will be fully disclosed, so that readers can evaluate any potential conflicts of interest.”
That first post was dated July 1. All quiet since then. Surely it's too early for the SEC to have shut it down already.
Welcome to the Jungle [Sharesleuth.Com]

watched the program on ROBTV, and was uncomfortable with the remark about Mark Cuban trading stock on information uncovered on your
site...saw the Mark Cuban outburst on the NBA, when as owner of his basketball team and felt the same discomfort..deja vu..be careful ..I believe the ROBTV anchor was wise to point out this to you.
Good luck on your site...mike ma & family-2006
