Is anyone else sick and tired of David Faber's telco reporting. This guy just keeps talking about the same thing over and over again.
He probably has some sell side analysts or hedge funds feeding him information on this telco spending equipment slowdown.
Probably keeps talking to the same people and the telcom equipment stocks like Lucent, Cisco, Nortel keep getting hit.

Why not take a balance approach to this issue and interview NT's CFO or some buy side analysts.

As I see it, it appears Faber is analyzing the situation like some analyst and not just reporting it. I would rather gets some analysts' views instead of a CNBC reporter's conclusion.

That is why I am ticked.

If he sticks with this for long, maybe when the telco equipment companies (NT) report their earnings, he should apologize for being so -- out to lunch; just like Dan Niles apologized for bad Intel call.
That is the real point---Faber is not an analyst.
