Jon Stewart On Libor Manipulation
For anyone who missed this the first time around.
Is this real or a Dickens novel?
Part 1 - Banks submit false data to manipulate the Libor interest rate, either for the good of the entire economy and all of mankind, or possibly to just benefit themselves.
---
Part 2 - Banking titans Rich Ricci and Bob Diamond are implicated in the Libor financial scandal, but an eighth-generation Hoare remains innocent of the rampant rate rigging.
"Oh right. The public sector pensions are underfunded in part because the bonds they own are paying too low a yield thanks to 16 bespoke suited turd-monkeys in London."
