Welcome to what is fast becoming the most degenerate thread on SI. And don't think I take a small amount of pride in having pushed us off this slippery slope. ;-)

It should be comforting to all of us that it's not just little guys that are enamored with Maria, but the high and mighty Wall Street titans can't get enough of Ms. Bartiromo as well. James Cramer runs a highly successful hedge fund and regularly appears on CNBC. He is also on the forefront of Internet, running a investment website at www.thestreet.com where he writes a daily column about being a trader and occasionally other commentaries, usually about business news coverage by the media. In his June 4th commentary, "Eye on the Media: Cramer Asks, Why Does Stansky Get Singled Out for Scrutiny?," Cramer wrote the following:

"Why does Bob Stansky receive sports page-like scrutiny...
.Kudos to our own Louise Kramer for scooping the McDonald's
55-cent disaster. And, speaking of kudos, how about the way
Maria Bartiromo stood up to the heat -- on- and off-line -- when she made her bearish Seagate report before the blowup. She was
dead right. Now take that, Newsweek, and your attempt to
bimbo-ize a serious reporter... "

You tell'em Cramer, defend our lovely Maria from those evil philistines at Newsweek
