Susan: Try turning the sound down -- or off -- it works like a charm! :)

I suspect the cause of most market "panic" isn't the typical CNBC viewer responding to on-air hype (and you're right, there's a lot of it) but rather the so-called institutional pros who "fire -- ready -- aim" all too often at the "droppings" of some guru or other. All in all, I still think the CNBC crew is skilled and professional and does a challenging job well. Joe's a bit of a character and can be underestimated because of it but he does know his stuff and seems very honest.

Good luck!
