This Rick Santelli Issue: I used to HAVE to watch him in the office where I worked. |

Edited on Thu Feb-19-09 07:30 PM by Mike 03
He has never, to my knowledge, been a figure of controversy before, so I want to tell you that this is an unusual circumstance where we actually CAN make a difference. If ever a person in the MSM was expendable, it's guys like this.
I'm not even sure what Santelli did, but if it was bad, and we all wrote to CNBC, we could have some impact. I know we could. He's not some superstar at CNBC. He's just a grunt.
So if anyone has any ideas about how to get rid of him, I'm with the program.
Even better would be to get rid of Cramer, because that guy is the most dangerous popular stock picker in the world. The guy is nuts, and he's also always wrong. He's lured a lot of unsavy investors into disaster.
Anyway, if Santelli said something so dumb that it is worthy of us ejecting him, just let us know and give us the email to his direct supervisor.

1. If we could get rid of people in the media, CNBC is way down on the list |
|
Between Rush and numerous whores at CNN, Faux and MSNBC we have our hands full. The average joe couldn't give 2 shits about Rick Santellis' "populist" rant on the floor of the Chicago Stock exchange.
Imagine the irony: a populist rant at the stock exchange, would be like Jesus railing against the money changers while flipping coins himself.

3. According to him, 99% of the e-mails have been positive. I'm sure that is BS but |

perhaps some more complaints would be helpful.

5. Rick Santelli seems to always call it the way he sees it: he is not always right but |
|
rightfully skewers any and all who would foul up the free market system. Problem is the a lazy fair approach to government oversight and regulation of Wall Street and the capital markets has resulted in the good ole boys having committed outright fraud imv on such a massive scale that the free market system may be forever broken. :P
