This is strong evidence that what is happening now is a political PR stunt.

If this is so, who is benefiting from the stunt and how ?

Obama and the dems want to get the financial reform bill passed. (I will not get into the disgusting merits of the bill here). The dems know that America does not trust its leaders, but they also know that many Americans do not trust Wall Street. They are getting the GS story out NOW to gin up America agains GS, and use it as propaganda to get more of America behind the financial reform bill.
