Don't know how long YouTube will keep this around, so if you want to add this instant classic to your collection, you'd best get to it now before Viacom's legal eagles do!

3. All the more reason why it belongs in the DU video collection

if only for a short time.

I guess no one bothered to post it here earlier because they either didn't believe it was on YouTube, or took it for granted that someone else had!

Stewart was on point to the tee

He has more cajones than MSM could ever muster up.

5. I never could get into those business shows they always just

seemed like one big infomercial to me.

12. That Kramer guy is a world class idiot

A perfect caricature of a day trader

6. If you find out, will you please tell me?

8. If you're using a PC...

there's a program called Free Ipod Video Converter. It converts the file to mp4 format. Even if you don't have an iPod it'll play using the Quicktime player. There's a YouTube function in the menu just copy and paste the link, click download and it will download the file and convert it. Sometimes you'll get a video that won't donwload but not very often. When the video is here at DU you have to click on the YouTube link itself, to go to YouTube to download the file.

9. Can download it at Crooks and Liars

In general, installing RealPlayer lets you save most streamed flash video to your Hard Drive. You get a 'download' button that pops up in the corner of video once it starts streaming. Very convenient.

7. Another BRILLIANT performance.

10. It can be watched on TDS' website.

18. Thanks for the alternative :-)

oh and one comment:

Where's the Americans who would have boycotted that asinine network? Where are the Americans who would have protested every bile spewing network that has stripped you of your own decision-making abilities? Where are the Americans who would have made a very loud and clear statement to wall street, the execs, the government that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH? Where has the beacon of individual LIBERTY and RESPECT AND DIGNITY for every man woman and child REGARDLESS of wealth gone? Will you all just sit there?

yes.

17. Loved it !! Great rebuttal to Santelli's sneering. //nt

[rocktivity]

19. MARCH 10 UPDATE

Jon insists that the clip was not put together as "revenge" for Santelli's cancellation--it had his intent to play to play it in his presence. He also apologized for implying that Jim Cramer recommended buying Bear Sterns stock in the clip. The fact is, Cramer made the recommendation seven weeks earlier!
