What sort of influence do you think CNBC has on investors & the market?

Too much. I usually find "Squawk Box" to be interesting, but Cramer is the worst of their regular guest hosts. He asks stupid questions and mostly just hypes himself, his Web site and his positions. The whole crew has gotten rather arrogant, making fun of their own audience this morning over some viewers who didn't understand "split adjusted".

This morning's Dell love fest was a bit sickening. Nothing against Dell, but they almost needed the makeup crew out there to do something about the brown noses.

I enjoy listening to him and the other guy Jim Rogers the biker investor . His TSC.com is a great paper, and I will think that shortly it may overtake some of the other financial journalism. I don't think he is out there to tout a particluar stocks. Most of the time CNBC guests do give opinions on the market. Some are bullish some are neutral, except Jim Cramer has a large following. Listen to him on Yahoo Chat and you will know what I mean.
