Isn't it funny that CNBC makes a point that they broadcast to the Nation AND the World? Poor CNBC is so parochial that they are leaving the door wide open to a Fox or other network to roll right over them.

But they have done me a favor. This Hillary/heatwave thing finally moved me to use the off, rather than the mute, button. I admit, though, that I do turn it back on for my major faves -- David and Insana.

I don't think we should blame the anchors for having to say lines that are written for them. The backcamera folks are unspeakably lazy and hopelessly unaware of life beyond their subway stop.
