I would suspect that most people that are NEW to the market or maybe not new but not very "experienced". Are the same that like CNBC's view of the market. I having experience find it to be both shallow and not well informed. Bill is just as BAD as it gets with his know nothing investment style. The guest's are flavor of the week and god only knows WHO the people are "This is JOE MARKET taking your calls... Buy AMAT, hold INTC, Sell GE, bla bla bla." As if I'm to trust this person. And CNBC doesn't even care to tell you what this person has done in his/her past performance if any. This alone sickens me.

Add to this the shameful interviewing by many. Again we must hear about the same 50 stocks day after day. And if ever a guess talks about a stock not of that 50. well then the probing question to the guest is. What about DELL, MSFT, & INTC. When was the last time we talked about this on CNBC. 1-2 hours ago? I vote we change the call letters to DELL from CNBC.

So why do I watch?
I can tell you it's not Bill G.The G is for, G is that Dell's stock. maybe I should ask. It has been 5 min since I last asked someone?

I must say that I do find much of value on CNBC, it only comes from a few people and because of them I still watch. Let Me just say EVERYONE in the afternoon and on can go. The morning team is the best
