| | USATODAY.com - Magnate's real life was at odds with wholesome image (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) |
 | | While portraying himself as a "a 6-foot-3-inch farm boy from the wheat fields of Wahpeton, N.D.," mutual fund magnate Richard Strong illegally timed his own funds longer, and made more money, than any other individual yet prosecuted. |
 | | After SEC investigators obtained the magnate's trading records, Hooker "expressed surprise, and, when asked if he had known of Richard Strong's trading, denied that he had," according to Spitzer's complaint. |
 | | A former Strong spokeswoman, Jody Lowe, said she was surprised Hooker was characterized as weak. |
