I suggested a few weeks ago in another thread that iclarified should just add a new section called rumors and put these kind of stories in it. Instead of "sounds like a good idea" the response I got rude and basically saying if I don't like it don't read it or come here. Albeit it was from a reader not anyone from iclarified. But still.
