pahunkboy -> fix CNBC? ha! (4/8/2009 3:41:17 PM)
http://crooksandliars.com/nicole-belle/act-blue-delivers-20000-signature-pet This group wants to fix CNBC. It wont happen. It wouldnt be too hard to do tho. En mass- cancel it. A petition wont achieve that. CNBC is far from the only faulty news source. What do you think?

I think the mainstream media serves its masters far more than the masses, and no petition is likely to change this fact.

Almost all branches of the modern media are a continual embarassment to the ethics of the journalistic profession. The "news" has become little more than noisy spin doctors, attention wh... ahem, attention seekers, and doom prophets. About the only news we get any more is traffic reports.

funny there was no movement to fix cnbc when the hosts of the shows supported Obama. The moment hosts like Cramer go critical on Obama its time to fix cnbc ;) i call it more of silencing political opposition then fixing a problem :)

I don't envy you. I think its an incredibly unhealthy attitude.

Sure. The "debates" were horrible. If it were up to me- I would pull the FCC license on all the networks that participated in the prez debates.

just look at the timeline. The moment Cramer attacks Obama he becomes a target of the Daily Show. Where was Jon Stewart's attacks against Cramer before Cramer and others from CNBC attacked Obama??? The same with those wishing to fix CNBC. Remember prior to their attacks against Obama there was nothing but love by you guys on the left for CNBC because fox news has just started there own business news station....truth hurts ;) quote: ORIGINAL: KaineD quote: ORIGINAL: MasterShake69 funny there was no movement to fix cnbc when the hosts of the shows supported Obama.

Stewart nailed Crammer to the floor b/c Crammer deserved it. The nation blame and has nailed neo-cons b/c they deserved it. The reason republicans feel so put upon is b/c they`re most often wrong and get hammered/exposed for it.

MasterShake69 -> RE: fix CNBC? ha! (4/9/2009 8:35:08 PM)
where was the attacks against cramer before Cramer attacked Obama??? where was the attacks against CNBC before several people on CNBC attacked Obama??? It was all fine and good before they attacked Obama ;) truth hurts :)

I really want CNBC to go to war against there hosts. It would be perfect,. CNBC s very successful in beating its fox and CNN counterpart. What they need to do is tamper with that success maybe even drive away some of there tallent to CNN or even FOX. Watch there CNBC ratings fall against their fox rival like they did with msnbc :)

Cramer, if he is as bright as we are lead to believe...was seriously WRONG....but, his position has less to do with politics than most think...He is a registered Democrat who donated to Obama.......just stating facts....As far as Cramer attacking Obama..what do you call "attacking"....and if once again, Cramer couldn't make the call on something he is intimately involved with such as the investment bankers, why should we believe him when it comes to the overall economic picture? Not so sure Cramer has the credibility he once had, but, then again, who on Wall Street does?
