How is financial news regulated?

There are thousands of pages of case law on the subject. Many of the most important in this area would involve private/personal versus commercial speech. Drawing that line in terms of financial news/opinion keeps many expensive law firms in business.

Name one of these "firms" kept in business by drawing the line between news and opinion in the financial press.

Financial Times , Oct5, 2011 , ES trading down all day when a late day rumor was reported on FT that Central Banks worldwide were coordinating efforts.
ES had a huge reversal on the rumor, 105 to 110 and follow through was big. Still ongoing.

Whats your point cause i forgot mine.

The point is if you try to manipulate the market and you are a trader then you can expect to face a trial and perhaps even jail.

Now if you are a journalist and you report news from an "anonymous" source perhaps with the intent to move the market for the advantage of yourself or others, then so far as I can see you are not subject to any regulatory frame work to either prevent you from doing this or to punish you if caught.
