Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
Message 4743512

There's no process here. There's no specifics. There's nothing to learn. Just cramer bashing galvin.

Have you noticed that when he makes a mistake his reporting of it is self congratulatory? Its not his fault! In fact, if find it quite annoying that one such as him is going to spout off constantly about short term trading strategies and not provide any reason to believe his theories work. Don't give me that "conflict of interest" There's no conflict of interest in telling people about trades after the fact.

The Beardstown Ladies goofed when they calculated their returns. And everybody is flaming them for it. The fact is, though, that they have done more to educate the populace about investing than virtually everyone else in the business. Including Mr. Cramer.

My point is legitimate- he's got a pulpit and he uses it more for self strokes when he could be using it to teach.

Its a legitimate criticism, and if you will note from my posts I do not attack him personally, but am offering advice.

I still find it amusing how defensive you guys are (and he was in his posts here.)
