Perhaps, instead of e-mailing CNBC about their annoying chicken in the screen's corner, we could e-mail the advertisers who are paying the bills. I'm sure that a word or two from the guys who write cheques to CNBC will bring more results than a ton of viewers' e-mail. Just my thoughts, PW.

P.S. If memory serves me correctly, advertising is priced by the number of viwers who see the ads. If a number of those people you're trying to reach with your message tune out, for whatever reason, you end up overpaying for your advertising. Since most business people don't like overpaying for services, I'm sure they'd be quick to take a look at this situation. As for CNBC, I doubt they'd welcome the additional scrutiny.
