Heh, caught that article this morning. Business "journalism" is a joke; little surprise the author once confronted with his obvious error would double down on it and blame everyone else under the sun instead of having the basic humility to admit he screwed up.

I wonder if the writer on obx voice contacted the the editor of the publication if an amendment would be made.

It's wholly unfair that resort areas (both dare co and the ski resort) be subjected to the kind of false bad press it can generate for a community.

I figured this was another story about the "impact" of game fish status.

What a nice surprise.

I saw it a few days ago on the Business Insider. I ignored it for the obvious reasons. Worcester County, MD, where Ocean City is located, seems to suffer from the same affliction.

never trust anything from Forbes or Yahoo finance. Both of these organizations routinely publish garbage analysis for the financially illiterate.
