Subject: To complain about the Cohen pump
Recs: 7
...call 877-251-5685 and complain that the largest institutional holder of SCOX was able to recommend a stock, saying it had "good fundamentals," when nothing could be further from the truth.
Use the ammo from threenorth

and threaten, responsibly, to call CBSMarketWatch, Fox and CNNfn with the same story.
Then EMail wakeupcall@cnbc.com and do the same thing.
two or three thousand toll-free calls and the same number of emails should get their attention.
Remember to be professional and logical. It wouldn't hurt to practice what you are going to say before the call and have some notes. Also SPELLCHECK those emails, and check for punctuation and grammar. No profanity or anger, just facts. Also, send the message as plain text, not html, so it will be sure to get through. Best if sent through a REAL email address and not hotmail or yahoo.
Words like "the ethics of the market demand Mr. Cohen come clean about his real position in SCOX" and "the future viability and reputation of CNBC rest with how you handle this alarming situation."
Essentially, he raises the stock price by 4% to 5% in a stock that is clearly suspect every time he is on CNBC.
