Al Qaeda Inc. might suffer some initial setbacks from Osama bin Laden’s death, but so did Apple Inc. when shares dropped over rumors of Steve Jobs’ illness. But it did not take long to realize that Jobs has established a highly functional corporation, and the shares bounced back.
Drug trafficking, kidnapping fund al Qaeda (tip o’ the antlers to Dan Frakes)

CNN Inc. might suffer some initial setbacks from emulating Fox News’ sensationalism, but so did Apple Inc. when shares dropped over rumors of Steve Jobs’ illness. But it did not take long to realize that Jobs has established a highly functional corporation, and the shares bounced back. Unfortunately, CNN and cable news may never recover.
