You don't know leatherman? He cusses out CNN for being dumb newsmen - this predated Stewarts slam I believe. Who else have you ever heard tell a financial newsman right to his face on live tv "jesus f**king christ" - it was hilarious! Gave art carney a heart attack probably! youtube.com What were they doing interviewing dice clay on a serious financial show anyways? :( Lou Dobbs later went on to start space.com because he thought he could talk to alien intelligence. en.wikipedia.org Cnnfn streamed thier content - today we are just NOW getting CNBC to stream thier content - almost a full 10 years later: The first to utilize streaming media with broadcast video. At the time, Real Networks, VDONet and VXtreme were startup companies in the streaming media space. No broadcaster saw the Internet as a viable way to reach their audience and they all believed their content to be too valuable to broadcast over the Internet for free. In late 1996, CNNfn.com published 1-2 hours of its programming each day within minutes after the actual show had aired on TV. I guess enough people finally got highbandwidth to make it worthwhile to them.
