<CNBC Struggles to Stay Relevant>

They don't get it do they? "CNBC executives are busy trying to plot a new course, one that will focus more closely on general news as it influences the economy ." Its not that news trends, its not the lack of interest in business news, its not the failing economy. Its just the lack of depth, lack of quality, lack of relevant thoughtful insight, lack of good reporting that has CNBS in the doldrums. Changing the format and keeping all the bs will get them the same sad results. The intended audience has outgrown CNBS's ability or desire to provide information.

Its not the format. Its the low quality and low standards of those charged with creating programming within the format.

I can't wait to see the new format. New garbage in, new garbage out. You reckon the morning Stool Pigeons will be yucking it up about this coming new format and their declining viewership? They sure thought the criticism was something to yuck up last year about this time.
