REB -- point taken. It ain't much fun being the dart board, is it? I think that's what the CNBC crew goes through each day anyway, on its own terms. I think Ted David will be one of your readers since he's a semi-regular on this thread. I like him; a very affable guy. My feeling is, as "long-winded" as your critique was, it beat anything else that had nothing to do with CNBC. After all, most of us are junkies. Have a sweet weekend B-Boy

Removing Joe Kernan from CNBC's cast would NOT be a positive change, IMHO. Joe's naturalness and spontaneity, with his knowledge of the market, give his reports a credibility second to none. Sure, Joe's on-camera 'efficiency' can be tweaked, but if doing so changes his style, much rapport with the audience would have been lost.
