Peston: What £23.8 Million Mega Sting?
Robert Peston on his BBC blog this morning:
“Well it’s been the quietest weekend since the beginning of September.
What’s happened over the past couple of days?”
I don’t know… how about you’ve been accused in a statement endorsed by the shadow chancellor George Osborne of being wrapped up in one of the most elaborate and complicated news-manipulation-insider-trading stings of all time? Which could have netted its perpetrators £23.8 million in under one hour on September 15th?
Do you just not read the papers Robert? Robert? You can’t hide in there! Pull your head out of your shell… !!

Stop ganging up on peston – the poor man is only trying to ride a wild tide of insider tips and dodgy sources to the shores of journo gold. Let the man surf in peace.
Go Peston!
