didnt read all the post but have you ever tried bloomerg tv online? Works really well and skips all the cnbc garbage.
Some female once posted on a CNBC blog, or somewhere, that, with those assets, Liz looked like a cow. The the redheaded PermaBull-favorite cheerleader reportedly posted back, "Mooo!"
When you start hiring anchors for looks alone and start dressing them up like dolls you are DEFINITELY catering to the masses. I generally just have an issue with anchors that become celebrities and sell out. That is the major issue with today's media. And NBC LOVES that kind of stuff - afterall, they created that terrible Couric person.
personalities don't belong in this foray. The market just chews them up eventually. How annoying in Kernan? Faber? I remember an SIA conf in Boca Raton, where Haynes said that if anyone went on Bloomberg before CNBC, they would be banned. Great ethics, huh? So now he coattails the brunette, another pain in the ass. You guys watch. Try Fly in the Wall audio. It's free in beta, and they tell you if New York is on fire.
Why bother watching Liz when this is out there? If you're going to run marketing campaign to attract viewers on all of that, you want her.
