Check out Matt Taibi’s blog on the aftermath of his piece in Rolling Stone. Here’s a snippet, but read the whole thing.  Goldman Sachs, Rapes and Pillages’ obfuscation is incredible – to say the least:

Actually I did contact Goldman and gave the bank every opportunity to respond to the factual issues in the article. I’m bringing this up because their decision not to comment on any of those questions was actually pretty interesting.

So what I decided to do the first time I approached them was to send a short list of simple factual questions.

I intentionally put a lot of yes/no questions on that list. If the underlying thinking behind any of those questions was faulty, it would have been easy enough for them to say so and to educate us as to the truth. Instead, here is the response that we got:

“Your questions are couched in such a way that presupposes the conclusions and suggests the people you spoke with have an agenda or do not fully understand the issues.”
