WSJ Video: The End of Wall Street – Part Two

This is part two of the End of Wall Street series the Wall Street Journal is producing.

Chapter Two of A WSJ series: What was going through the minds of CEOs, corporate boards, fund managers and mortgage lenders as they created hard-to-understand derivatives Warren Buffett once called “weapons of financial mass destruction.”

You have to love how it starts off with Alan Murray saying “There’s plenty of blame to go around. I think in retrospect lots of people who were doing stupid things.”  Then the famous NYSE opening bell goes off and they cut to a shot of Alan Greenspan.

I couldn’t help but think about Tim Iacono’s site when I saw this.  Watch this video.  They really takeoff the gloves here. Regulators and the rating agencies get a severe beat-down. Well-done.
