Yep, this isn't the first story in recent memory from Bloomberg that smells like much ado about NOTHING. What's going on with them?
In what alternative universe this is happening?!
Do you have any evidence of this?
This sounds made up?
FTA: We asked Bloomberg about the practice. A company spokesperson acknowledged it.
"It isn't news unless it's true. At Bloomberg News, the most important news is actionable. That means we strive to be first to report surprises in markets that change behavior and we put a premium on reporting that reveals the biggest changes in relative value across all assets."
I was surprised to learn this is true!

It doesn't provide any proof that they encourage bogus reporting for the purpose of manipulating the market. There's a difference.
