At the time I made the comment, the article was two paragraphs long, the first being the actual news about Apple and the second being what I quoted. It doesn't stick out from the most recent revision as much, I agree, but I still think it's a pretty bad story.
These stories come out all the time in the financial press
Which is a big reason I dislike the financial press so much. "Event + chatter from random analysts with vested interests" is a terrible template. It's lazy, boring, and uninformative, and to me counts as bad journalism even if it doesn't cross ethical lines.
