Not sure what you refer to by "the big news sources" however it was all over CNBC, both in pre-market and during the market.
I believe the buyout was for a cool BILLION.
Quote from pitcher:
All Congressmen and Senators will put a bill before the House to stop oil futures trading Monday. Only a business that uses oil in their business can buy oil, no futures trading will be allowed.
Danone it about to launch a new lemon yogourt but i've been told it's not related to the Option Xpress story

Soon we are going to have Futures in Pure drinking water !

Why not ban the stupid ETFs USO, and UNG have really screwed things up and add to volatility. Politically it seems a lot more doable. Or why not hold a gun to Ben's head and make him raise rates a couple points, that alone would make oil drop 20 bucks. The housing market is dead who gives a shit if your mortgage rate is 4% or 6% if the price of the house is less it's a wash in the end.
Doesn't options express own OEC? Will this new company eventually offer an all in one platform like IB or TOS?
