NEW BLOG: ShareSleuth.com debuts

I haven’t had a chance to read the piece yet, but the first piece at ShareSleuth.com has just been unveiled. SS is the work of Chris Carey, a business reporter at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, was hired by billionaire Mark Cuban to run an investigative business reporting site. From Carey’s opening note on the site, "Welcome to the Jungle" -

My goals for Sharesleuth.com are to shine a spotlight on questionable companies, to build an audience through unique, compelling stories and to generate multimedia content for other outlets, including HDNet and HDNet Films.

Unlike mainstream media outlets, we’re going to have a clear bias – against deception and corruption. We’re going to depart from the traditional “he said, she said’’ model of journalism, with its false balance and toothless objectivity.

The first piece, an investigative report about Xenathol Corp, a producer of alternative fuels, is at http://sharesleuth.com/2006/08/moonshine_blindness.html
