CNBC has not read or referred to the NY Times article on any of their shows as of yet, I will keep watching for it. In fact I will bet you a gallon of bootlegged whiskey from Joseph Kennedy's private stock that CNBC will not address the issue of preferential treatment for celebrities versus the common person.

For those interested in the full NY Times article, its here:

nytimes.com

You have to register to get the NY Times on line but its free and its fast; and no I don't work for the paper.

I think the Kennedys will invite Geraldo into the compound today for supper so they can talk gun control, raising taxes and female encounters. Look for live coverage tonight.

Geraldo is David Brinkley compared to Diane (I touched a celebrity once) Diamond who made her career whipping up hysteria over Kennedy's cousin in a trial that proved to be a big nothing.

Jim,
While I do not agree with everything you say here, nevertheless,
I must say that in my opinion you are not really "off topic" here. If a "financial channel" wants to get themselves heavily involved in non-financial matters, then that subject is very fair game for discussion and comments, no matter how distasteful in may be to the "politically correct" would be censors.
