What's this?

What about the person who types "5 biggest tech companies" as the subject?

Can I expect that person to understand the difference between Tech and Media?

Facebook is down 20% today, so that's clearly going to change the 5 vs bottom 282 figure. That's all I was pointing out.

Not sure why you're so hung-up on the Tech/Media classification. Heck, does Amazon even count? Some would argue Amazon is really Retail or Distribution.
