However, at exactly when the bell rang, before the data were released, Yahoo Finance and several other Main Stream Media outlets, as soon as the markets closed had headlines prepared and published on the Internet that Apple's 3rd quarter was "disappointing," and Falsely claimed that Apple had MISSED the street's earnings expectations (completely false) andCLAIMED themissed expectations were several BILLION DOLLARS HIGHER than the one they had published just ten hours earlier as the Street's "Whisper Numbers!" and which are always considerably higher than the regular number than the Street's consensus earnings number. Apple exceeded by 33% their previous 3rd quarter sales and earnings record from last year. . . and that was "disappointing"?

All this is meaningless drivel to a contrarian options trader. But you would not know that either..
