LOL! I thought the Ferret was rather tame compared to calling her GizzardLips, but some of her 'followers' took that term a little too seriously. Almost kicked the TV in when I would hear these clowns calling in telling her how beautiful she was, and what was the host's opinion on some POS like AMZN...

Yeah, actually it was SI Bob who threw a fit over it. He's obviously a FerretFan. I wonder if she realizes these firms use her like a tool. You know, I wouldn't mind if she'd just come on and tell it like it is, "hey, Merrill's getting stomped on some optical stocks they have in inventory, so someone from their trading desk called me, wanting me to tell you viewers about it, in the hopes that you lemmings will dive in and bail them out..." But this crap about dressing it up to make it sound like she's "breaking a story" is a friggin joke. "I don't know for sure, but the call might be bullish..." MIGHT BE bullish? Yeah right, like they didn't tell her on the phone call they were gonna hype the hell out of them. And it's also no coincidence that the alleged conf call is gonna happen during market hours--all the more reason to get would-be daytraders to jump on Maria's spin. Hey Maria, the boys from J.T. Marlin are trying to reach you. I hear they're gonna have a broker conf call about FarrowTech later this afternoon, and it might be bullish. They were hoping maybe you could help them out.
