OH NO. But you know what's sorta getting to me lately---lately it seems their commercials are telling the viewers, "If you watch CNBC, you'll get rich." Just listen to the commercial for the retirement special on Friday: the guy says something like, "If I watch CNBC's retirement program then I can retire early." And another commercial, I think it's for The Edge, says something like the show's for those who want to make a profit. I don't know what it is, but it bothers me that they seem to be promoting themselves as the ones who can provide a viewer with wealth. I don't know about anybody else, but I find investing involves a little bit more than watching TV--but I'm probably just reading too much into the commercials.
