Bubba: Joe Kernan married Ted David? CNBC's in New Jersey not Hawaii, for goodness sake. (Actually, someone said Ted D. was on vacation at an undisclosed location. Hmmmm?) Yes, you're right about market hours being dominated by grumpy old men. Maybe they need their naps later in the day. I'm selfishly pleased that Felicia Taylor is on the early shift as I watch at that hour. She does a good job plus has a "twinkle" and sense of humor which is very welcome at that ungodly time in the morning . Occasionally, she has been on later in the day recently -- probably filling in on vacations. I'd love to see Amanda Grove, a true classic beauty, get more studio time. All in all, they're a good group of on-air people. The big idiot at CNBC is the head designer who obviously refuses to listen to regular viewers about their annoyance over the stupid, obstructive and distracting logo and the green pulsing slime thing. Elementary Design Graphics 101: Design should follow function -- not the other way around.
