You go girl :)

Sounds good; But, why a black face?

Hey Lizzy I remember Your face You Took My Mule Drawn Carriage Tour When You were Here how you doing?

BLAH BLAH BLAH BORING...

yeah, i'd do her.

she's hot.

The problem goes a long way back with Politicians trying to buy votes being the main part of the problem. Most, but of course not all of the subprime mortgages went to blacks. So what!!! If some idiot is handing out money most people will gladly take it.

Are you kidding! MOST of the system is totally full of scamming scum. Those who live off and support this system are scum. Here is to change and people being held accountable for their gross ignorant greed!

What most did not see is the use of social psycology She set if up using the word "numbers" and we all know the characteristics of numbers is that they dont lie , She kept using the word numbers in order for resonating purposes . Then BAM through a black face on the story to make it seen honest. And even if she tell you to your face she is just doing her job as a journalist and the black face is arbitrary you people will still believe its blacks fault And everyone did not see this on youtube

As you can see they put a BLACK face on the sub prime mortgage problem. And then afterwards presented the numbers which refer back to the black face and sense she is only the one person those other numbers related to other blacks and going to New Orleans didn't help either. So to sum it up her report made the white audience who saw this more prejudice against blacks and sanctioned them away from accountability And at the same time made blacks feel guilty for being the cause of a crises

The "problem" is that there was a program to give these people loans in the 1st place! The mortgage brokers preyed on the greed and stupidity of those that had no business getting loans. The programs were started by "progressives" that wanted to pat themselves on the back by touting big home ownership figures. It has nothing to do with statistics. These statistics were created by the policies. It's the policies is the real story here. Typical misguided "journalist."

Thanks Lizzie. Interesting piece. Kepty attention and I'd like to see more.

It's east to forget how much preporation and hard work goes into news stories. Thanks for doing what you do.

I love you Lizzie! You're sooooo awesome!

ugh mike bloomberg...

This is why they put women in front of cameras. Even the most awful story will be watched by dumb men.

good job Lizzie!

good job lizzie!! very interesting!!

her eyebrows are pretty brown, but her skin and name match scottish or irish decent. true redheads have small breasts, great butts, but bad hands. i'm heading to roodharigen this year, so wish me luck in picking up a few :) roodharigen. nl/

I was joking, I meant nothing by it.

this chick was probably a total nerd in highschool, but id do her

Yes. You are all right. Too much attention paid to the face. I have only one question; does the carpet match the drapes?

And if the face is attractive, a lot of people miss the point entirely. It is all based on whether you can keep the people's short and discriminating attention span. Just read some of these comments. A lot are not paid attention to what she saying. Just commenting on her looks.

i used to have the bloomberg terminal untill my work cut me off, you see, i used to work at an investment bank that provided my with the professional service free of charge. i called my sales rep the other day to see how would it cost to subscribe and he quote me $5200. Bloomberg charges 1800 a month to use their service, you pay quarterly, man that was to good old o' days, i miss you terminal
