No. There are absolutely no citations or specific examples. There is the claim that "every time a newspaper has attempted to clarify the concept of market 'volatility', it defined it verbally as mean deviation yet produced the numerical measure of the (higher) standard deviation," which is not an example, it's a fact claim without a shred of evidence behind it (and as it is an absolute claim, you only need to find one example of a journalistic article on the stock market that properly defines standard deviation to prove it wrong).
