MB: <<I figure if the touts don't tell 'em, it ain't news. <G>>>

Or more likely, it's not the sort of news they wish to see. His pretentious reply to someone else (he didn't see fit to respond to my post <G>) where he said he only reported the news and nothing more, still sticks in my craw. Especially after today's performance of the summary of the day's biggest movers. He spoke very rapidly, and with a flat, to no, inflection as he mentioned the losers...and then, with a voice filled with wondrous glee, he said...and then there's Perot Systems...WOW it's up so and so. He has a clever patter and a pleasant demeanor, but as an unbiased newsman...no way.

I e-mailed some stuff to Ted. He hasn't replied. He could be busy with his job or he is just tired of my comments about CNBS being biased.

Perhaps it's time to try their competitors who may be interested.
NY Post, CNN, CBS, ABC, and oh, Imus in the morning. (gg)
