> Now Zynga has scheduled a call for a “news announcement” for 3pm eastern. I’m going to go out on a short limb and assume it’s to formally acknowledge that they have bought the company.
I'm glad the news seems to have been confirmed (?), but I must say that the headline is rather disingenuous, given that there was no actual confirmation. Even the lede makes it seem that there's no doubt; just confirmation of a previous rumor. I don't ask for anything major - just a single word (or two).
(I originally posted this comment for the other submission a split second after it was deleted, but it still applies - glad HN at least chose the more responsible title).
