I have been watching a lot less of CNBC since the graphics changes--not just the bug, but the green slime (as I believe Cramer called it) and all that blue stuff whirling around when they have two people on the screen who are in different locations. The screen seems too "busy" and it bothers my eyes.
The funny thing is that a couple of weeks ago I wanted to tape a movie and checked the tape first. Well, on the tape were some CNBC programs done prior to the graphics changes (sometimes I'll put a tape in when I go out and there's an interview or segment coming up that I want to see and watch it later). I could not believe the difference! The picture was so much easier to watch. I sure would like to know what those CNBC folks are thinking. They choose ten people at random and show them a tape from today and a tape from 3 months ago and see what they say. I'd bet all would prefer the old way they did it.
