It might not be that simple. If the story was done properly, Bloomberg received information from a source that they were able to verify using other sources. Maybe they saw parts of the report they talk about, but likely they just talked to sources. Bloomberg likely cannot reveal anymore information without revealing sources. Their options are to stand by their story, or retract it.

I'm waiting for another news outlet to bring more information. Additional sources will come forward and more reporting on this story will only get us closer to the truth.

I disagree. Bloomberg knew what kind of financial effect the story would have on at least Supermicro, and if they can't back up the story with actual, provable facts, then they are culpab!e. They know this.

So let's have some facts. Like an x-ray.
