NewTeeVee have learned that Wallstrip, the somewhat pop-ish stock show, have secured a little more than half a million dollars in funding. Howard Lindzon is the source, although both his blog and the Wallstrip site are lacking any more information.
With the funding, Wallstrip plans to create five more original shows on the topics of finance and venture capital. Lindzon says, whereas Wallstrip is keeping things upbeat and happy with the all-time-high theme, “not mucking around with companies like Dell,†at least one of the other shows will tackle the fact that stocks don’t always go up.
Congratulations to the Wallstrip team. Some of us are still wondering how you’ll monetize but that could be a later problem I guess, as Howard said in the interview over at Bloggertalks, the Revver ads in the end of the show doesn’t pay any bills.

Thanks Daniel
As you know, I think BloggerTalks is cool, and you seem fair but why would you associate yourself with Krug.
I am happy to talk with you offline
Howard,
Not a huge fan of the Krug bashing. So if you want to do this. Take it offline. Otherwise I’m pretty much going to ban you from my sites.
“why would you associate yourself with Krug”
–Not so civilized attitude howard, is it?
You are in Krug’s site.

Howard,
So long fair well. Feel free to reapply to this end of the blogosphere when you can stop personally harassing me. Whether that’s email, blog comments, noise, or hatred. And if you think I’m acting unfairly remember I posted some really positive things about you a few months ago. I still believe that. I just believe you are acting childishly to my criticism of your most recent endeavor.
