However, the FAZ didn’t cite any sources for this information and DB failed to respond immediately, according to Zero Hedge, in regard to their chief executive, John Cryan’s travel plans. Which is a pretty clear indication that the $5.6 Billion settlement number “obtained from twitter” is a total fabrication.

"xxx failed to respond immediately" is one of the most empty and meaningless statement among journalists arsenal of empty statements. It basically just means that the journalist sent an email or tried to call at the last minute, and didn't get an immediate answer. How entitled does one have to feel to require immediate answers from big businesses about one's petty journalist questions! Hardly anything worth mentioning anyway if you are not trying to pad an empty article with pseudo-facts.

Yet, you manage to conclude that this empty statement is "a pretty clear indication that the $5.6 Billion settlement number 'obtained from twitter' is a total fabrication". Just LOL. You are grasping at straws @dollarvigilante. It's 3rd October already. Ding Dong. Where is the global collapse your promised us?
