Steve Kroft: What's the headline here?

Michael Lewis: Stock market's rigged. The United States stock market, the most iconic market in global capitalism is rigged.

I never ever mentioned e-trade. In my prior posts I talk about “the Market is Rigged” comment. I do not understand why you brought up e-trade? E-trade is not the issue. Lewis who is selling his book makes an obnoxious statement and he should be called out on it.

He goes on and says the following in response to Kroft's questions:

Steve Kroft: By whom?

Michael Lewis: By a combination of these stock exchanges, the big Wall Street banks and high-frequency traders.

Steve Kroft: Who are the victims?

Michael Lewis: Everybody who has an investment in the stock market.
