Demetre,

I long ago switched to cnnfn, much more straight forward news. Although I still turn the sound down whenever they have a ANALyst (re: whore) on, especially taking calls from idiots who want an opinion on DELL, etc.

I do sometimes listen to CNBS when Insana is on, the only one of the bunch worth a damn. As far as the "brain", if he really wanted to be on the cutting edge of breaking news, why doesn't he break news on the option scam at MSFT, or the fact that INTC is only showing a profit because of their stock and option manipulation?? Either he doesn't know how to read a 10q or he's afraid of loosing his "contacts" on the street.

I'm probably a little out of the loop here, but I only want the facts and I'll make my own decisions. And the only real facts I see on the tube is the ticker tape at the bottom of the screen!!

PS: I also listen to Cavoto (sic) on fox -- sometimes.

Bill/WA

You said it. Do we want more comedy and entertainment with our financial channels, or straightforward seriousness?
Poor KO..... First Maria, and now today Goldman Sachs, for a combined "one/two punch" that knocked it down again. Yogi
