Mt. Gox is the world’s largest Bitcoin exchange, at least as measured by transaction volume. Millions of dollars worth of bitcoins change hands every day on the site.
Yet recently, something peculiar has been happening. Ordinarily, the price of a commodity is roughly the same everywhere it’s traded. But lately that rule hasn’t applied to Bitcoin.

Interesting. Been tracking this for a while, as I'm sure other traders have.

Wonder what made them pick up on the story, some threads here perhaps?

That's easy, they love negative news, so far we've had plenty of good things happening like new payment processors etc. which they could have reported on but seem to have chosen not to, it's even better when they can bash something in support of their own government.
