Ted,

I have been watching CNBC weekdays almost daily since January 1996. And part time since FNN days.

Tom Costello Doomdays coverage is making me sick. This morning he was picturing the worst case scenario for ATHM mentioning in a negative way a number of times.

Not once did he mention that ATHM received three upgrades. One from Prudential with a strong buy and Target price of $250. see link
( quote.bloomberg.com )

ATHM close up 9 and change and even though it was among the most active he did not mention it once late in the day.

Some other comments on Costello by another SI members:

I do not know about other people but that kind of onesided reporting is making CNNFn more attractive every day in my eyes. Please feel free to share this comments with Tom Costello. Perhaps he should join Sidnie in London or maybe in CNBC antartica.

What about those comments after the market closed saying a good day for AOL and a bad day for AOL. Do you editor news writers look at the closing prices?

I give you one you where the only one that said WOW ATHM up 9 and change. (I was 1/2 into my stairmaster workout)

One last thing how come your call screeners for taking stock do not now company ticker. Even for large well known companies. I am sure that there are many journalism/communications students that would love to have that job and who have a love for stocks.

Shape up or you will lose a lot of viewers, CNBC is not the only game in town.
