Damn you Yahoo! and your little “Finance” website, too. Let me elaborate.
I am so use to getting lots of news from Russia Today’s YouTube.com websites (e.g., “Breaking the Set” with Abby Martin, and “Capital Account with Lauren Lyster”). YouTube has a user-friendly design. I have an easy time commenting on YouTube videos, checking out other people’s comments on YouTube videos, and accessing my YouTube account data.
This week, Lauren Lyster switched from Russia Today’s television broadcast and YouTube account for “Capital Account with Lauren Lyster” to the website at Yahoo! Finance’s the Daily Ticker.
The great news is that Lauren Lyster continues to deliver superior economic news. The bad news is that Yahoo! email is good, but its other media features are barely acceptable.
Yahoo! uses a commenting system with much more strict censors than YouTube. The commenting system is buggy or unreliable, and it does not allow users to easily access other people’s comments. Even the Yahoo! video features suck. The video quality is average. The video speed is barely decent. The video options are lacking.
Yahoo! seems to be satisfied with mediocrity, which is most unfortunate, because Yahoo! Finance at New York hired the supremely talented Lauren Lyster. She deserves the best media exposure. She could easily be a megastar on Yahoo! Finance or on cable TV.
Here are Lauren Lyster’s videos on Yahoo! Finance’s the Daily Ticker for 2012 January 10 (Thursday):
(1) “Peter Schiff Takes Aim at Krugman Over Inflation” (Yahoo! Screen, the Daily Ticker)

(2) “Peter Schiff Doubles Down on Inflation Prediction” (Yahoo! Finance, the Daily Ticker)

(3) “Japan’s Monetary Policies Are Disastrous for U.S. Economy: Peter Schiff” (Yahoo! Finance, the Daily Ticker)

For some reason, on the first link, I can’t comment, and I can’t see other people’s comments. I noticed that many other Yahoo! Screen videos have the same problem. What the f*ck Yahoo!?
On the second and third videos, I could comment, but the commenting system is clumsy. It constantly censors me or mysteriously loses my comments. It forces me to view other people’s comments at a sluggish rate.
Yahoo won’t allow me to make the following comment, (I think it’s) because I used the word “dyke” or “lesbian”:

WOW! Who is this Lauren Lyster?
She's amazingly uncanny. She's unbelievably lovely and insightful. She is a real-life superhero-heroine, thus, She is The Wonderful Woman.
In the past, I ignored Yahoo! Finance, 'cuz it's filled w/ mainstream media propaganda from the too-big-to-fail corporations, from the inflationary-taxation central-banksters, and from the government of mandatory expensive failures. However, with the inclusion of Lauren Lyster, I look forward to seeing Her content, and only Her content, every day on Yahoo! Finance.
Yahoo! Finance should give Lauren Lyster Her own economic show with Her own website. Lauren Lyster is so versatile and talented, She deserves megastar treatment.
The lovely Lauren Lyster is naturally beautiful with normally balanced and proportional features from top to bottom, thus, She is the epitome of angelic perfection with devilish hints. She does NOT look like a freakish skeleton suffering from bulimia or anorexia, nor does She look like a bodybuilding dyke. Unlike Hollywood, She's an all-natural talent.
The insightful Lauren Lyster is intelligent in regard to economics and social skills. She critically analyzes information, unlike the typical content on Yahoo! Finance and on the mainstream media, which simply regurgitates propaganda from the corporate-government. She knows when to be polite, when to debate, when to listen, when to talk, how to be polite, how to debate, how to listen, and how to talk. She consistently reveals various economic perspectives.
In summary, Lauren Lyster, the Wonderful Woman, delivers full-spectrum dominance, thus, She deserves Her own economic show on Yahoo! Finance. Her megastar tour-de-force will greatly improve the quality of Yahoo! Finance and increase its popularity.

Of course, Yahoo! allows users to use normal words to criticize and ridicule people’s racial or ethnic heritage, religions and philosophies, culture, language, history, etc. Apparently, I can’t say “dyke,” but other users can say something similar to, “Women who sleep with each other are dirty hoes who deserve to be tortured indefinitely in hell”. Yahoo! censorship doesn’t make any sense at all. The word “dyke” is not that bad, but the statement about lesbians and hell is totally inappropriate. The people running Yahoo! are retarded.
To exacerbate matters, Yahoo! Finance’s the Daily Ticker only gives Lauren Lyster approximately 5 minutes for her video interviews with various economists, businessmen, analysts, and so forth. What the f*ck is wrong with Yahoo!?
I have a hard time understanding how the people running Yahoo! Finance could be such screw-ups. Yahoo! has a history of mismanagement ever since its revolutionary debut. The people at Yahoo! Finance are too incompetent and/or too jealous to give a complete Internet show to Lauren Lyster. How hard could it be to give her a 30-minute Internet-show on Yahoo! Finance?
With more time, Lauren Lyster could provide better interviews for people like Peter Schiff. Check out Schiff’s video on the government’s consumer price index called, “ Inflation Propaganda Exposed” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwI3Nya5L9g). Whether or not you agree with Peter Schiff, he is not afraid to provide alternative economic analysis. Lauren Lyster also invites mainstream economists and many types of analysts (including Lew Rockwell). Lauren Lyster is a phenomenal economic reporter in so many ways.
It shouldn’t be too hard or expensive to give Lauren Lyster her own show on Yahoo! Finance. Lauren Lyster did a phenomenal job at Russia Today’s Capital Account (which is based in Washington, DC), even though she led a small team of 3 people at any given moment, and they probably had a small budget. She went from being a superstar news-anchor at Russia Today’s America branch to a megastar host for Russia Today’s Capital Account.
For reasons unknown, Lauren Lyster then moved to New York to join Yahoo! Finance’s the Daily Ticker. Maybe she was offered a better salary, or maybe she got sick of Washington, DC. Who knows her motives, but godspeed to her. She deserves th best.
Anyhow, I’ll continue to use Yahoo! Email, and check out Lauren Lyster at Yahoo! Finance’s the Daily Ticker, but I will only use the rest of Yahoo! when I am desperate or have no other choice.
F*ck you Yahoo! and your little “Finance” website, too.
Fix your commenting system so that people actually enjoy using it, and pay your FULL respects to phenomenal talents like Lauren Lyster. Otherwise, you’ll continue to be mired in mediocrity.
On yeah, I’m wondering how Aaron Task and Henry Blodget got their jobs at Yahoo! Finance’s the Daily Ticker. The two of them are so boring, even though they try (and failed) to be entertaining. Their analysis and news picks are so typical. I’m guessing they are related to someone who is wealthy and/or influential, or maybe they are friends with the ruling class or upper management. They could be good cock-sucking pillow-biters for those in power from a metaphorical and/or literal viewpoint. Probability says they are useful idiots or certified idiots put there to regurgitate propaganda from their corporate-government masters.
Whew, that felt food :)
