I would love to see them interview some Austrian economists like Walter Block, Joeseph Salerno, Ralph Raico or Peter Klein.
Apologies, a double dose of cold medicine has the brain operating in slo mo. Melissa and Charlie are great. Charlie needs to be taking these State Run AP Obama shysters off to the side and showing them what real journalism is.
Sorry. I stopped watching CNBC when I realized their just shills for corporate interests such as JP Morgan. That goes double for Cramer.
Peter Klein has been on with Bartoromo.
All CNBC does is run all kinds of talking head segments, with “experts” going off in every direction. Then, after one of them is eventually proved correct, they trot him out and say, “see, you heard it first on CNBC.” You’re much better served just surfing the web for opinion; it’s faster and you get the people your search leads to, not whoever Immelt’s boys want on. The data is all available free anyway. If it were a science, nobody would lose money. But that ain’t how markets work. It’s part art, part luck, and part graft.
On March 26, 2009, Ms. Caruso-Cabrera can be heard saying "bullshit" on air during the broadcast of President Obama's Virtual Townhall
By Michelle’s own admission, she’s to the right of Atilla the Hun.
Bloomberg TV is much better if you can get it.
NBC has become a bunch of talking heads. Dennis Kneale gives me a headache and Cramer pumps the stocks that he owns. Kudlow acts more and more liberal every day, or at least more Keynesian as Bush was. Joe Kernan and Rck Santelli are worth listening to and the $ honeys are worth watching. Sad that Ratigan went to MSNBC and went downhill. Without him Fast Money isn’t as good.
When you go through the list of CNBC daytime hosts and sidekicks, conservatives are in the vast majority. I saw Huffington on CNBC one time, Squawk Box I think, and she was kept in check by the hosts. I haven’t heard anything from Howard Dean - he won’t last anyway.
I’m quite happy with the current line up of conservatives and token libs, for balance. Too bad they often have to interview top Wall Street brass who are, as you say, big libs. For example, that fairy PIMCO chairman is probably one of the biggest I-got-mine libs and competes with Immelt to suck on 0’s teat. Below the senior executive climber levels, I think Wall Street is mostly conservative.
Sometimes there’s too much of a good thing!
And Fox is trying to “attract” more viewers by becoming more leftist. Talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory!
You are right on these people (though Maria is a little evaisive).
There is a lot of left wing drones on wall street, but they can’t survive on those viewers.
Thanks for adding color.
I’ve taken to muting the TV and listening to Mark Levin on the internet. That gets me the information I want, both visually and in audio.
Nice to se the mountains are blue.
CNBC is the most biased factless stock station because its all there is besides bloomberg....
Go over to the Market Ticker Forum and listen to the Pros complain about what they call “CNBS”
