Ted..I know you are not responsible but one the my biggest CNBC irritations is number and more importantly the frequency of commercials. It seems like every 5 minutes CNBC runs commercials. This constant running of commercials in my opinion severely limits the quality of interviews with CEO's, stock market guru's, etc. Your guest are constantly being cut off just when they are getting to some interesting stuff and you never go back to em. Because of this, for the most part, I hit the mute button after squawk box and I wouldn't even have CNBC on if it wasn't for the ticker.

When I watch CNN for example interviews are much longer and informative. How about if you lump the commercials at the beginning of the hour and half hour. In order to leave more running time in between.

Regards,

Rory
