The biggest fraud in Wall Street history?...zerohedge...Umm, right. Biggest. Fraud. EVAH.
Reminder: ZeroHedge is rated "CONSPIRACY-PSEDOSCIENCE" for "the promotion of false/misleading/debunked information that routinely denigrates the left."
And the Bureau of Labor Statistic addressed the issue when the NYT's questioned it:
Emily Liddel, an associate commissioner at the Bureau of Labor Statistics, said the agency tries to be responsive to users and to answer technical questions.
“We allow employees to speak directly with interested parties in order to match up the experts with the people who are trying to understand the data,” she said.
The email controversy, Ms. Liddel said, “caused no small amount of embarrassment” and will lead to more training and a review of policies on information disclosure.
“There are bureauwide efforts to re-emphasize the importance of making sure that everyone has equitable access to the data,” she said.”In short, nothing much there. An employee seems to have created a subgroup of contacts and sent them an email believing s/he was clarifying a data anomaly but instead caused confusion.
And ZeroHedge is trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill.
That Tyler Durden guy must have taken a few too many blows to the head... lot of typos in that "article".
