8 Words of Wisdom for Week Ending 3/20/2009 #5
Did you really just use your platform as a journalist to hold PEOPLE APPLYING FOR UNEMPLOYMENT's feet to the fire? You think the reason people aren't finding jobs is because they are lounging around, coasting off their unemployment checks - seriously?

That was one of the most out-of-touch things I've ever seen. You appeared oblivious to the fact that many of the CEOs you interview continue to give themselves exorbitant salaries at the same time they lay off $30,000-a-year employees. You also seem oblivious to the fact that, for economic stimulus, unemployment checks happen to be one of the best returns on invest out there, next to food stamps -- will you be taking on people on food stamps next?

I think we've reached a point where we can stop pretending that CNBC is a News network. They are clearly an entertainment network run by business types. That's all well and good, but they should at least come clean about it. I recognize that they are largely preaching to their normal audience, but now that we are in an economic crisis, I think people have been tuning into them thinking they are actually a news network. That's a shame.

CNBC and Fox News proves one important thing: conservatives like propaganda and liberals like news.
