	Insider trading - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An example of illegal insider trading may be that you, as an assistant to the chief executive officer, learn that your company is going to be taken over before it is officially disclosed publicly.
		Since insiders are required to report their trades, others often track these traders, and there is a school of investing which follows the lead of insiders.
		Insider trading can make markets more efficient by increasing the amount of information that is known about the company, and can motivate outsiders such as analysts to increase their knowledge about the company.

	Insider trading - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Authority to prosecute cases of insider trading came from the Supreme Court's interpretation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC Rule 10b-5, prohibiting fraud in connection with the purchase or sale of securities.
		An example of illegal insider trading may be that you, as an assistant to the Chief Executive Officer, learn that your company is going to be taken over before it is announced to the stock exchange.
		Insider trading is usually performed by the already wealthy, who can afford the best lawyers available and have the resources to drag a case out and cost the prosecutors millions along the way.

	Insider Trading, by David D. Haddock: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
		The basic argument against insider trading is that insiders should not be permitted to earn such sums at the expense of uninformed traders.
		Even if insider trading sometimes creates more harm than good, rules against it could be contractual (e.g., "employees of our company who trade on material, nonpublic information forfeit their pension rights") rather than mandated by government.
		A peculiar feature of insider trading law is that informed trading is treated more leniently if the trader is such a "quasi insider" (often a market professional who holds a seat on an organized securities exchange) than if the trader is a true insider.

	Selective Disclosure and Insider Trading
		Likewise, selective disclosure has an adverse impact on market integrity that is similar to the adverse impact from illegal insider trading: investors lose confidence in the fairness of the markets when they know that other participants may exploit "unerodable informational advantages" derived not from hard work or insights, but from their access to corporate insiders.
		The rule does not require any particular documentation or recordkeeping by insiders, although it would, in some cases, require a person to document a particular plan, contract, or instruction for trading if he or she wished to demonstrate an exclusion from the rule.
		The law of insider trading is otherwise defined by judicial opinions construing Rule 10b-5, and Rule 10b5-1 does not modify the scope of insider trading law in any other respect.

		That 1995 crime spectacle was the last Mann movie to reach theaters before his latest, "The Insider," which starts out as an exposé of the cigarette industry, expands to debunk broadcast news and lays bare the existential anguish of white-collar America.
		In "The Insider," Mann's two lead characters -- Jeffrey Wigand (Russell Crowe), the fired head of research and development for the Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation, and Lowell Bergman (Al Pacino), the segment producer who nudges Wigand into telling all for "60 Minutes" -- are knights in dented armor.
		"The Insider" approaches them without condescension or preconceptions; this film knows that the loss of medical benefits is a weapon as lethal as a knife or gun.

	Salon Arts & Entertainment \| "The Insider" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Among news junkies and media insiders, "The Insider" has sparked furious gossip over its portrayal of the inner workings of CBS News and "60 Minutes," especially the relationship between host Mike Wallace (played here by Christopher Plummer) and his longtime producer Lowell Bergman (Al Pacino).
		Although Bergman, who acted as a consultant on the film, is depicted as a martyr for the cause of journalistic integrity and Wallace is shown caving in to corporate suits at a key moment, the presentation of their characters and the conflict between them is anything but simplistic.
		On the most obvious level, these scenes express the character's extreme isolation; he has thrown away his livelihood and lost his marriage, has been bombarded with legal gag orders and anonymous death threats and may be abandoned by the network that coaxed him to talk in the first place.

	The Insider Movie Review by Anthony Leong
		This is the basis for "The Insider", director Michael Mann's ("Heat") fictionalized account of the events leading up to the long-running news programs' darkest hour.
		In the weeks leading up to the release of "The Insider", there was much controversy over the veracity of events portrayed in the film, particularly from Mike Wallace, who has been outspoken about how negatively he is portrayed in the film-- an arrogant man who cares more about his 'legacy' than his journalistic pride.
		But despite the liberties taken to heighten the dramatic intensity of the story, overall, "The Insider" remains true to the spirit of the real-life events-- an ex-tobacco executive sacrificed everything he had to tell the truth, only to be betrayed by the very people who convinced him to blow the whistle.

	The Insider
		The Insider, based on Marie Brenner's Vanity Fair article "The Man Who Knew Too Much," fictionalizes the efforts of CBS producer Lowell Bergman (Al Pacino, Any Given Sunday, The Devil's Advocate) to get and air an interview with whistleblower Jeffrey Wigand (Russell Crowe, L.A. Confidential, Mystery, Alaska).
		Wigand, who was fired from his Brown and Williamson job as Director of Research and Development, was forced by executives to sign a confidentiality agreement.
		The Insider is a character driven charged drama that should surface again at Oscar time.

		The Insider is two movies--a cover-up thriller and a drama about journalistic ethics--that combine to embrace the noble values personified by Wigand and Bergman.
		Michael Mann's "The Insider" shines the spotlight on one particular industry that went to extreme lengths to guarantee that their income stream never dried up.
		"The Insider" is a stark reminder that good men and women in the investigative reporting field are still diligently at work exposing the evils around us despite the enormous pressures exerted upon them to keep sinister secrets secret.

	Review: The Insider (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The first half of the film centers on Wigand - his struggles with his conscience, his conflict with his former employers, his difficulty convincing his wife to understand and accept the sacrifices she was being forced to make, and his decision to damn the consequences and go forward.
		The Insider is arguably a little too long with a few too many minor subplots thrown in (such as one about the Unibomber).
		To be sure, the film tackles some big issues, but Mann never permits any of these "shock" revelations (which really aren't all that shocking) to eclipse the fact that the characters, not the concepts, hold our interest; everything else is of secondary importance.

	THE INSIDER
		His former employer is asking for an addendum to confidentiality agreement, he thinks he’s being stalked, and the local FBI agents seem to be in someone’s pocket.
		The Insider tells the true story of Wigand’s decision to become a whistleblower and the dramatic effects that the decision has on his life.
		The Insider could have easily been 30 to 40 minutes shorter and, as a result, a much better film.

		The infamous “things” referred to by Hewitt and Wallace are the scandals that erupted in early 1996, when it was revealed that CBS News had refused to air an interview with a tobacco company whistleblower because the network feared the (financial) consequences.
		The tale itself is both gripping and socially relevant, and if The Insider were peppered with lines and situations at least half as brilliant as the aforementioned dialogue exchange, this docudrama-cum-thriller would stand on a par with great cinematic exposés such as Costa-Gavras’s Z and Robert Redford’s Quiz Show.
		In The Insider, Lowell Bergman quits CBS shortly after the February 1996 showing of the Wigand interview on 60 Minutes.
