Joe …

The post begins AND ends by noting the stock’s uptick.

Brian …

At 2%, churn is still up from 1.7% a year earlier. And that $157.3 million loss is nearly double what it was a year ago.

Come on?!?! How biased can you get? Analyst expectations were proven true?

How about the fact that analysts predicted 300k – 400k subscriber losses, and Sirius only lost 176k?
Or how about the fact that out of those 176k subscriber losses, ONLY 15k were self paying subscribers anyways?!?! The other 161k were PREPAID PROMOTIONAL SUBSCRIBERS that likely decreased because of decrease in car sales?

How about the fact that the company MET EXPECTATIONS of -0.01 lost per share before one time expenses, which are NOT ACCOUNTED FOR IN ANALYST OPINIONS.

How about the fact that churn DROPPED from 2.2% in Q1 to 2.0% in Q2?

EVERYTHING about this company is improving, except for the way near sighted, biased media portrays the company. Or perhaps you are not biased… maybe you simply do not know what you are talking about?

So which is it sir? Incompetent or biased?

John, when you say, ‘down 7%’ you are correct, down that today, but you could also say, Sirus stock is UP over 20% in the past 5 days. (even with today’s dip) Failing to tell the whole story (or twisting the data like you have) is poor writing and I am ashamed of you.

John. Um. Hello. It’s called “profit taking”. Duh. It happens a lot or so I’m told after a CC.

3Q should post a profit for the first time, and you, Cramer and all the other shorts/bashers and naysayers will have to eat crow. :-)

Whats with the story title, “Losing Cash”? Investors have been making money on this stock the last 6 months. They met expectations and raised guidance. Your story headline really does not match the facts.
