Yes —here is the post that I published in May 2007. As you can see if you click on the link, the content of that post is rather positive for mister Russell Andersson, since I called him the “brain” behind HedgeStreet. However, when Russell Andersson first spotted his photo on Midas Oracle, the trauma was very severe… Believe it or not, today, (we are in April 2009, almost 2 years after the fact) Russell Andersson takes the electronic pen to declare to the world that he still carries a grudge against moi for publishing his photo without his prior “consent”.
- Any blogger, reporter or journalist does not wait for somebody’s consent to publish the truth. (That photo is indeed that of Russell Andersson. I did not lie, right?)
- That photo was taken from an official interview of Russell Andersson. (On Midas Oracle, any image that is re-published comes embedded with the link to the source where that image was taken, so that our readers can check the source by themselves.)
- The reason Midas Oracle is “the most visited site related to this space”, according to that (successful, him) prediction market professional, is that I don’t wait for the “consent” of VIPs or established organizations before I hit the “publish” button.
- If Russell Andersson wants Midas Oracle to publish a long series of positive reviews about his work, he could do what Nigel Eccles of HubDub and Adam Siegel of Inkling Markets and others have done: Creating value for the traders and the probability seekers.
