I agree. Benzinga looks like crap. No respectable news website would have so much advertising on their pages. I get dizzy just looking at their website. And it is so unorganized. Also, they have google adwords on their site....no serious site would have that. I tried to find something useful on the site and couldn't.

I saw a report on them and they just hire kids to re-hash stories from the internet. Briefing is 1000 times more professional and actually has adults and industry experts writing for them.

Bottom line....Benzinga is a joke.

Benzinga is a total joke. Recycled garbage full of useless advertising. I challenge anyone to find something useful on that site.

can you give any specific examples of how benzinga enabled you to make more money? i'm not a benzinga hater, but i would like to hear a bit more about why benzinga is worth it. you make it sound promising, but how do i know that these aren't just lofty claims that benzinga cant actually live up to?

At 1:40 today they announced over the audio that VRML Spokesperson Says Patent Award Reported Today Was Actually Announced in March

Played the down side after they spiked much higher today. Quick in and out for the day.

I get a few of these type plays a day from them.

And this does what, exactly, for you?

"Services" like CNBC, Briefing, etc...
Just flood you with "noise"... you get no "signal"...
By the time you get the "noise"...
1000 Pros have stepped all over the "signal".

Only a paid, quality squawk service might have some value...
And that only to an expert trader who can act in < 10 seconds.
