(1) We’re Apple shareholders being kept in the dark regarding the condition of Steve for too long? (2) And did the letter he issued last week disclose the seriousness of the issue at hand? Yes, shareholders were kept in the dark for too long on even the ware abouts of Mr. Jobs. Until he issued the letter, the news space was buzzing about his health and overall disappearance from public appearance (except for Yogurt) for 6 weeks. This on top of the fact that it has been since June 2008 that no one was able to receive any answers as to why he had lost so much weight. To answer the second question, no, the letter he issued did not express the seriousness of the issue, nor did it hint that he was on his way out. The letter promised that he would have no more to say about his health, implying that his condition was stable enough that it would not need to be addressed again….http://tinycomb.com/2009/01/14/apple-shareholders-misled-in-jobs-dilemma/ Hope Steve gets better soon, but I disagree with how the whole situation was handled.

It's one of the main reasons why I canceled cable long ago. That being said, Dan Lyons really goes after Goldman and makes him look (and sound) whiny and ill informed. Which, he was.
