MarketWatch web designer should be shot?

  1. Why do they keep using the biggest font they could find for every petty headline? Nikkei is down 0.7% overnight, big deal? Does that warrant the use of a headline "Asia's sea of red ink"? I thought the market crashed just by looking at that.

    true.. but at least it was a much easier format to read through. I don't know what they did now. But way too much going on now on the frontpage.

  4. Agreed. The web developer should be shot!lol :D
     
  5. Vote with your mouse and find some other financial news site
     
  6. I think I will. Yahoo finance is kinda annoying, can't really articulate a reason.

    Also, the small ads on the marketwatch site are flashing a million times a second on my screen, I feel like I'm gonna start convulsing if the flashing continues. What can I do about stopping it, any ideas?
