      Commercials on Sirius XM: Benefit vs. Backlash
      P.S. to the rest almost through the tuff times. Wait till people here about how much FCF they are going to have. I believe we should here something on that on Dec. 18th, like Mel said before when he came out and said 4th Q 2007 was going to be a great deal more then 4th Q 2006, well before the release of numbers. I myself think that will be the catalist for a upturn in PPS, because people cant at that time use Feb. or May dept as a reason anymore. Or at least it would make no sense When they can show that they are going to have enough COH to take both of them out. Then again nothing on the PPS of this stock has made much sense.

      *I feel the need to repost the facts on who lies and who tells the truth. markbmark said this when he talks about a judge saying SIRI sued itself.*

      markbmark 229 Comments Nov 10 02:44 PM "WHAT A SHAME

      People come here looking for true thought about Sirius.

      But, Sirius pays people to post trash here.

      Crooks, all of them just crooks! Like that guy 163888 wants you to belive Sirius did not try to get protection in aa RECO scam lawsuit to get a setment to protect Sirius from other stock holders.

      Come on people. It is court proven raceteering! The Federal Judge ruled and bared the lawyers from practicing in thaat state for 5 years! These Sirius employees posting here whant you to be optamistic. What a joke!!!


      *Then I wrote this:*

      "Just to clear things up this was posted by Micheal Hartleib at Sirius Buzz. If you read it you will see the case that "markbmark" is talking about were the judge said the lawers could not practice in the state for 5 years was well before the case against SIRI. So one has to ask how a judge would even bring up SIRI at that time, almost 2 years before the SIRI case came in.

      RALEIGH - North Carolina public companies have one less law firm to worry about when it comes to shareholder lawsuits filed in the state.

      North Carolina Business Court Judge Ben Tennille has barred the San Diego, Calif., firm of Robbins Umeda & Fink from practicing in the state for five years on a pro hac vice basis. The Latin phrase, which means "this time only," allows an out-of-state lawyer to appear in court for a particular trial even though the lawyer isn't licensed in that state.

      The order came as something of a coda to a shareholder lawsuit, Egelhof v. Szulik, filed on behalf of a former Red Hat shareholder against members of the technology company's officers and board of directors.

      Shareholder lawsuits are the bane of many public corporations since there are a host of law firms that specialize in filing them on word of bad news from a company.

      In 2004, Robbins Umeda & Fink represented a plaintiff in a shareholders derivative case involving Chapel Hill-based Pozen. That lawsuit was dismissed in November 2005.

      Press Millen, a Womble Carlyle attorney who helped defend Red Hat's management in the Egelhof v. Szulik case, hopes the victory his side scored will have a positive impact for corporations beyond the case.

      "I think it's pretty serious," Millen says of the sanctions. "It's definitely a warning shot over the bow of out-of-state counsels about filing meritless lawsuits in North Carolina."

      Sanctions against plaintiff
      The order, which was issued Feb. 4, prohibits Robbins Umeda & Fink's lawyers from appearing in the state's courts for five years. It also bars Andrew Egelhof, the plaintiff in the case, from acting as a shareholder derivative plaintiff or a class-action representative in North Carolina litigation for five years.

      The Egelhof v. Szulik complaint, which originally was filed in Wake County Superior Court in 2004, included allegations of insider trading and gross mismanagement at Red Hat. Defendants included Red Hat Chairman Matthew Szulik and board members Marye Anne Fox, former chancellor of North Carolina State University, and retired Army Gen. Hugh Shelton.

      Tennille dismissed the plaintiff's claims in March 2006 due in part to Egelhof's loss of standing as a stockholder. The defendants later asked that they be awarded attorneys' fees. Though that motion was not granted, it prompted Tennille to examine actions taken by the plaintiff and the law firm.

      Tennille asserts that the lawsuit was filed in a "needless rush to court" just 31 days after Red Hat restated its earnings on July 19, 2004. He wrote in his order that the case was filed without an inspection of the company's books and records, and many of the allegations relied on media reports and published analyst opinions.

      Tennille also took exception to Egelhof being the fiduciary standard bearer. According to court documents, Egelhof was a 24-year-old Kansas resident when he responded to an Internet solicitation seeking a plaintiff.

      While he had a degree in business administration, Egelhof had worked in information technology jobs at Kansas State University. His holdings in Red Hat amounted to 28 shares of stock worth $710.50 that he bought in 2004.




      markbmark, Dhaaa, facts are hard to get around aren't they. By the way go ahead and keep posting the lies. Tell me when you have enough rope."

      markbmark, I can keep doing this all day long. You forget everything that has ever been written can be pulled back up. It shows ether you or Micheal H. is lying.

      Sirius Investors Face Difficult Decisions: It All Boils Down to Faith
      cos1000, (D), sorry it took so long to get back to you just have not been looking much at the market to depressing. I buy more of DSX at 10 and it go down, LOL, not really. I think sometimes you just have to step away, or you may end up doing something foolish.

      My problem with Micheal and other bafoons that now follow him is they are there because they lost money on a speculative stock that is still not out of the game by a long shot. They want to blame anyone but themselves. The proof is Micheal has been shown many times to be untruthful and misleading. As you said he did it again in that interview, for the informed that heard Micheal talk about this at Sirius Buzz, you and I already rebuffed Micheal by telling him what Mel actually said, you actually reposted the comment word for word. Yet that seems to blow right by his followers, facts are not important to them, and that is why I call them dolts and baffoons.

      P.S. I voted for the RS and the delution, Mel has stated what he wants them for and he has not as of yet given me any reason not to believe him. I also voted to keep the board because from what I recall most of them are from SIRI and I have followed the metrics of both companies and know why most of them are. To all others, there is a reason XMSR people got canned.

      Thanks Tyler for explaining things to dayworker. Then they wonder why Mel calls them unsophisticated. My god how many times do you have to explain something before they get something as simple as options give as a bonus or salery by a company.

      sl62, That is why I put "If what Micheal told Brandon is true". I am not saying I believe it totally but do find it interesting that Brandon would say something like that. He could have put it another way, if it was not what Micheal had said to him.

      P.S. dayworker, Mel can only cash those in if the PPS gets over the option price when the option price is over 3 dollars it makes those options worthless. You are correct, if you are assuming Mel is a big believer in giving options as a part of peoples salery. That is because he believes people should be rewarded only if the company does well and not if it doesn't.

      dayworker, I could sue you right now. I would just need your name address and any reason I wanted to pick from. Lets say I wanted to say and sue you for a loan I said I made you. Weather it is true or not you would have to defend yourself in court or I would get a automatic judgement against you and could then take action to collect. My point is, the suit is only as good as the crack pot that submits it.

      sl62, this what Brandon said "The next issue I want to address is the outrageous behavior of a certain group calling themselves “Save Sirius.” I admit I know very little about their agenda, but I do know they are headed by our old friend Michael Hartlieb. I have had several conversations with Michael and I have to say I am very disappointed again. Unfortunately, one issue stands out in mind from out most recent conversation. Michael commented to me with a slightly cynical laugh that he was told by persons at the FCC that, barring his actions relating to interoperable radios, the merger would have been approved back in January.

      This means, of course, that had Michael not delayed the merger through actions that were found to be without merit, the merger would have been approved before the economy went into recession. This means that the company would have had 2 extra quarters of combined revenues and decreased costs to contend with the debt issues now upon them. My opinion of the self titled group “Save Sirius” is on par with the actions of C3SR - another self righteous, hypocritical group seeking nothing more than the demise of Satellite Radio. In other words, Michael, you need to remove the plank from your own eye, so you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brothers!"

      cos1000, of course it was, there would not have even been the need for that 700 billion bail out if they just changed that rule back to the way it was. But remember ENRON.

      dayworker, by the way, you are going to trust a person that was telling Brandon that it was because of his (Micheal H.) actions, was the reason that it took an extra 6 months for the FCC to come to a decision. If what Micheal told Brandon is true he is the reason for the place that SIRIXM is in right now. You know what a hypocrite is right.
