And here is a report about my workshop at the South Carolina Press Association:
Those in attendance did not know:
1. What a Uniform Commercial Code filing was and how it can be used;
2. Only one person had ever heard of a WARN Act filing;
3. One person was vaguely familiar with the term “hedge fund,” but didn’t know how they operated;
4. None knew what short selling was and why investors did it.
Like I said, there’s a different world of business reporting out there that SABEW and other groups aren’t reaching. I had a lot of the deer in the headlights look today as I explained stuff.
