Nasty Turn in Sharesleuth Controversy
Gary Weiss has been one of the most outspoken critics of Mark Cuban’s plan to trade stocks of companies that are targets of Sharesleuth in advance of the publication of critical articles on the site. Yesterday,things took a weird and nasty turn when Cuban posted an item to his blog claiming that Weiss was using a pseudonym to edit the ‘Mark Cuban’ wikipedia entry, inserting new language to make it more critical. Today Weiss is back, issuing a total denial of the charge, calling it a lie.

They are still battling it out in the comments section on GaryWeiss's blog even as we post this item. Hard to believe that these two used to be allies of sorts--both were loud critics the anti-naked short selling conspiracy crowd.
