Really and truly, there are many politicians who serve nobly, businesses that are steadily thriving and parents who love and protect their children. It is just that readers do not often find much about them in the mainstream media's usual doom-mongering coverage of crime, war, disaster and economic woes.

FOR financial journalists, talking to people who have a stake in what is printed is so ingrained as to seem obvious. The people who think about markets and know what is going on are almost always participants. And they do not often speak against their own interests. In the world of Wall Street, getting favorable publicity for your own position is known as "talking your portfolio." It is a rare money manager who will bad-mouth a stock he owns, or who will forecast plunging bond prices when he owns a lot of bonds.

The stock of the Chantal Pharmaceutical Corporation fell more than 62 percent yesterday after Barron's, the financial weekly, published a report that questioned Chantal's dealings with a Los Angeles distributor and the claims of Chantal's lead cosmetic product, Ethocyn anti-wrinkle cream. Chantal shares plunged $11.8125, to $7.3125, in Nasdaq trading of nearly 7.7 million shares. The Barron's article raised issues about Chantal's option to acquire Stanson Marketing, the chief distributor of Ethocyn. It also discussed lawsuits against Stanson's president, Frederick Reinstein, and challenged claims that Ethocyn could reduce skin wrinkling. Officials of Chantal were not immediately available to comment on the Barron's report.
