WallStrip Does It ... In 6 Months

WallStrip, the daily web show devoted to irreverent stock news
see my previous post about it here, announced yesterday morning:






CBS is buying us and we WON'T tell you for how much!

The six-month-old program has been on YouTube, Veoh, Blip.tv, iTunes, Yahoo! Podcasts, Google Finance, TheStreet.com, AOL Uncut, vSocial and Revver. And from now on CBS....

Much of its success is credited to host Lindsay Campbell. She is often compared to former Rocketboom host Amanda Congdon, who was picked up last year by ABC News. Lindsay will stay on as host. WallStrip's producers Adam Elend and Jeff Marks will produce original web video for CBS. Creator Howard Lindzon will become a consultant for the network. When the shooting gets hot, the hot go corporate ... or something like that. Never mind the sour grapes from me - congratulations WallStrip!
