Terrible decision by SA to disallow Chuck Carnevale FastGraphs videos from your site. This was one of my favorite analysts and will result in me seeking him out on other sites and REDUCE my time (and clicks) on SA.

Forcing one of your all time favorite contributors to drop out is one of the most stupid ideas you guys have ever come up with. As other(s) have noted, any hope by SA of having me (and many others) of signing-up for premium service is now gone. Potential competition? You have nothing like "Fast Graphs". Unfortunately what I'm seeing as of late is more and more contributors blatantly pushing their "paid for" reports and less and less real investment research.
This is a disturbing decision by SA. Although I have been considering a premium membership, blocking one of the most insightful contributors, makes me question the motivation of the SA team. Obviously the Fast Graph videos highlight Fast Graphs and but that does not detract from SA but rather enhances it. I am less likely to enroll in a premium membership if the SA team intentionally quashes high quality contributors due to what they (may) see as potential competition. This decision should be reversed.
What is going on with Seeking Alpha? Chuck Carnevale is one of its most valuable commentators -- unbiased, informative, not using his site only to push a premium subscription -- and he is a major reason why I use SA. Well I guess I'll follow him elsewhere and use SA less. It has been turning into a promotional site for subscriptions in any case.
I agree with everyone above. Bad decision SA. I think you owe your subscribers a frank and COMPLETE explanation. I currently have two authors set for notification, chowder and chuck. Chowder was run off a while back and now chuck. I came to SA from my fastgraphs account. While I don’t watch every video, I read all the articles. I’m going to give SA two weeks to make a public explanation. If that doesn’t happen or it doesn’t satisfy me as reasonable, I will be canceling my account.
