  • that's what makes America great: People (networks, etc.) have the right to BULLSHIT us. and you jackasses fall for it...don't complaint if YOU are made a fool. I don't watch the shit YOU do and that dummy, John Steward. It's always the same story: Television boobs criticizing other television boobs. WHO NEEDS IT??? just don't watch TV. Period.

  • hahahhahaha those are the worst subtittles ever lol

  • Stewart is okay. Its 50/50 with him for me. Sometimes he's funny, other times he's an idiot.

  • I live in Canada, Jon Stewart is probably one of the rare journalists with any integrity in your emerging tyranny, the fact that he is a comedian is ironic, and makes me nervous,a serious comedian, and a joke of a media is a bad mix for a neighbor who is armed to the teeth and waving guns around, well everywhere

  • John Stewart rocks! lol

  • Peter Schiff saw it coming Cenk

  • @rmccay88 and he was laughed at on every business show. The shows themselves would brush off Schiff Roubini, Rogers & Talib as kooks who did not understand the market.

  • I thought he was going to pantomime giving a BJ after he said "giving BJs" and raised his hand.

  • Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert rocks!

    Comedy with balls of steel!

  • Where do you nitwits get off have advertising before your videos? Like you're worth anything or a needed outlet...

  • Surely the worst thing you can do when your under attack from Jon Stewart, is to go on The Colbert Report.

  • You got to cut the business professionals some slack, some things are hard to see coming. I don't know many political pundits who said in 2007 that what the Dems needed for 2008 was a black populist with 2 years experience in the senate to win in 2008

  • I agree we need to let them get up again,,,

    HOWEVER it is a problem that everybody is running for cover, when it comes to making a factual analysis of what made these monumental oversights possible,,

    Political financial, social strucktures and the psykology that allows uncompromising greed to accepted as the best way of doing buisness..

  • same reason why Bushs ears stuck out the more he lied......

  • Bandwidth, Servers and Staff to run them are not free. Ads are a part of the entertainment business, it's either pay a subscription or look at ads.

  • nice Cenk!

  • These Youtube Adverts are really starting to grate. This place has gone to shit

  • Go fuck yourself, i make as many complaints as i want shithead its called free speech. Stop defending to corperate greedheads with the dollar signs on everything. In fact just go to the mall and spend you fucking waste of atoms

    Why dont you try making a vid yourself instead of trolling.

    If there's ads it NOT free you dumb piece of shit.

  • Just checked 'recent comments' on your page. you are just one the offensive insulting no taste childish pricks that are the cancer of the net. You set up an account on a video site and then never put any vids up but feel you have the right to try and drag everybody down to your level with insults and what you think are witty remarks and recycled jokes. Your like the Wannabe bully with no muscles so all you can do is be offensive insulting and really just a waste of space.

    Just go back to sleep

  • Then stop fucking your little sister.

    Stop trying to hard, your not funny and probably one of those reallly upopular guys who wouldnt know what a pussy hole looked like.

    Begone

  • this guy copied John Stewart's comments in the Jim cramer interview and passed it off as his own rant - yawn

  • inferior culture? lol what the fuck are you talking about? number one who are you to say what culture is inferior? your nobody, no one cares what you think. number two this show isnt about turkish culture you fucking idiot. its about politics in america and pop culture. and the only person that is turkish on the show is cenk uygur. and hes an atheists not a muslim you dumbass.

  • julieandance

    - what is your native language, and aren't you going to be sent to the vice principal for staying out of class after recess?

    Turkey never has been an"Islamic" state.

    Neither was Persia. NOBODY was muslim until 600ad. The fanatical part didn't come until the early 50's.

    The Persians, Syrians and Turks are responsible for our written language (vs Roman numerals), astronomy, among many other wondrous gifts to civilisation.

    Get a clue.

    Get a life.

    Your Mom's calling you.

  • Bullshit ! Stop spreading Al Qaida propaganda ! The gifts of the turks to civilisation are Attila, Gengis Khan and Tamerlan... ennemies of any civilization, European or as well as Chinese.

  • None of those people were Turks.

    With your logic you could say the gifts of Europe were Napoleon, Vlad the Impaler, Hitler and Mussolini. Scared xenophobe.

  • Julien: You mean people like Bush that support Al Qaida? Like when we were looking for Bin Laden and then he diverted troops to Iraq. He said just 6 months after 911 that he didn´t even care about getting Bin Laden. I care about getting Bin Laden more than Bush did. You watch, Bin Laden will be dead within a year. Your comments are super weak and have nothing to do with this vid.

  • No, I mean people like you, oalemdemadrid, who support Al Qaida.

  • What are you an autistic 3 year old parrot broken record? Just keep repeating yourself and don´t address the issues. You support Al Qaida. You send them money and logistics and training and equipment. And manlove.

  • Why are you defending yourself ? Haven't you just confessed that you have something to hide ? It is obvious now that you are an Al Qiaida supporter, you would not react so violently if you had nothing to hide and if your conscience was clear. Too bad for you, evil thoughts always come to light.

  • Oh I get it, you´re scientologist. Just one question, out of sincere curiousity. Why don´t you use a regular polygraph intead of the e meter? Or both?

  • No need for scientologist junk machines, your statements defending Al Qaida are enough to convince you.

  • during 9/11 bin laden was on a dialisis machine you cant plan a terrorist attack on dialisis 9/11 shouldnt have happened we should question the towers security because they fell with 98 tons of explosives not a plane a plane can not creae upward momentum only explosives can and too much too sneak into that building

  • You should probably educate yourself to the fact that Al Qaida was created and funded by the CIA.

  • umm the US government set up the al qaeda camps if you forgot about that

  • I support terrorism depending on the context and objective such as freedom fighting. You're the one who should be sent to jail for being ignorant and backwards. Unfortunately thanks to the terrorist who founded this nation called America (Assuming you're an American- only an American can really sound so stupid.) we all have a freedom of speech, of course anyone with a rational mind will ignore the fuck out of you and listen to the guy who has a point to be made. Not "People like you who...."

  • not that im in favour of wackos crashing agaisnt buildings but actually most part of what the French resistance done is considered terrorism

  • Gotta love Jon Stewart!

  • hahahaha @ Perrenial Lucidity

  • he's right ...the ceo's bullshit the public thru 'so-called' news organizations posing as financial stations and we're supposed to support them thru investment? hello....no wonder the economy is fucked.

  • it's because he's not a member of the unquestionably superior aryan race.

  • wow this is the worst ancor. he's doing poor stewart covers:)

  • oh right, and the world is gonna end in 2012, and bush did 9/11 and my eyes are gumballs

  • not sure what eyes and gumballs have in common waltermelonson,

    but Cheney's handlers absolutely pulled off a coups d'tat on 911.

    feel free to get back to me

  • Research0digo, good to see you're still an idiot. Absolutely is a pretty definite word for something that no one can prove, and I believe you mean a coup d'état, which is the incorrect use of the term. I did not like the Bush administration either, but sometimes you just have to realize that all you are, is a moronic conspiracy theorist.

  • Research0digo, just wondering, what does your reference to Cheney,coups d'tat (sic) and 911 imply?

  • Ha ha ha ha ha!!!

    And I'll just go ahead and assume you have, you know, proof of that.

    Ha ha ha ha ha!!!

    I'm drunk? Really? Wow, I'm a cheap date.

  • "teleprompter queen" huh? Lame. Every president uses a teleprompter. That's like making fun of him for wearing suits and ties. Or like making fun of John Edwards for getting professional haircuts, as if every other candidate didnt do the same (even the half-baldies).

  • people are stupid, what can ya say...

  • @jfrsnjhnsn

    I bet Independent candidates cut their own hair :P

  • You should watch his other clips. I think he has a very high IQ. I do agree he needs support like the guys on big channels. It's hard to run as a one man show without much support.

  • haha this guy is the worst newscaster ive ever seen

  • sorry to say it but this host just isnt very good. he stumbles over all his lines and the jokes just don't hit the punchlines

  • the host is a retard, fuck that guy.

  • This host is a fucking idiot, hes poorly coordinated and hes simply not funny. He adds nothing to the world of news or humor.

  • hahahaha this was hilarious......

  • michinom I just can't beleive reading your post! You sound like you were born during the Middle Ages or you're from another planet. Don't you even have a single grasp of what's happening in this planet? I cannot believe some of the people here!

  • People need to get in there head that the media outlets knew, they just didn't report the truth as usual so wake up....

  • now that this opportunistic idiot doesn't have Bush (the man who made his career), and because he lacks the balls to take any jabs at Obama, he needs to find some target to leech on and spoonfeed his Pavlovian audience.

    Almost EVERY broker was wrong and looks like an idiot now, even the mighty Warren Buffet. Why doesn't Stewart take any shots at him? Stewart is a coward and pseudo-comedian who hides behind his label. He is a full out political commentator who simply gets a free pass.

  • He's a comedian! If you take his show seriously, you have problems.

  • Jon Stewart is a brilliant comedian because he is a brilliant man. Cramer tried to disparage him by belittling the word "comedian." It was painful but satisfying watching him squirm when the mere "comedian" took him down.

  • Oh I completely agree. I think a lot of people just think of Jon as just a mere comedian but he has blown away some of his critics. I mean, shit, look at the Crossfire youtube clip.

  • Stewart hides behind his comedy.. does he dare do any "comedy" on Obama?

    We all know the answer to that. He can't touch Obama, so he has to go after someone to get ratings.

    This guy thrives on division in America as much as any conservative or liberal Politician. The guy slams Crossfire, but look at his own show. He would not have a career without George Bush or Cheny. His whole image was built out of leeching hate from the masses.

  • Stewart is first and foremost, a comedian. What's there to hide behind? He has made fun of Obama, maybe you miss those shows? The thing is, as a comedian, Obama provides the least comedic value compared to what Bush provided. You cannot deny that, liberal or conservative.

  • Stewart goes after Obama usually 2 to 3 times a week... I doubt you watch his show.

  • Stewart and Letterman and ALL those comedians will feast off Obama, the moment he makes some major mistake. This has not happened. Letterman has to resort to making Clinton jokes. Because Obama is intelligent enough to not be seen doing things worthy of ridicule.

    And it is his JOB to make fun of these people. He is a COMEDIAN. His job is to, when all others are admiring the emperors new clothes, to laugh at his genitalia.

  • No,, not quite,,, Obama gets a pass on most things... and any jokes are very very tame and safe.. I like Obama as a person,, don't get me wrong,, but you are delusional if you don't think he get's special treatment compared to others. Nobody has the balls to make fun of him,, because they run the risk of some idiot pulling out the race card. It will be interesting to see which mainstream comedian truly treats him as an equal to others, and goes after him.

  • OK, challenge for you... Come up with a funny joke about Obama that is not racist, i.e. one that does not even remotely refer to him being a black or half black half white guy.

    ALL other options are open.

  • It is difficult, because there is not much that is obvious.

  • Yea.. thats what i mean too..

    Obama never does any mistakes..:P

    not any funny stupid ones at least..

    like bush..;LOL:P

  • HA. You really think he is getting a break? Obama is getting a break cause he is black? Listen to Hannity or Limbaugh. Thats like saying FOX was giving Bush a break cause he is white.

  • Jon stewart has a very keen fell for Us (you and me).

    He singlehandedly in 10mins took out Crossfire on CNN years ago.

    Every candidate for President who stood a chance came on the show. He has so much power.

    His only problem is he knew like the rest of us that the people on TV lie like cheap rugs about financial news. So, I am saying taking a cheap shot after the fact is being ....dis-ingenuous to be the most fair. All for the sake of comedy?

    Good vid.

  • journalists most of whom are english/history majors etc. to predict the demise of bear stearns and lehmann

  • the minute any of you (expert or otherwise) think we've weathered the worst of this, think again. it's only the eye of the hurricane. this was a classic letterman night.

  • watch the daily show tonite.cramer will cry like a baby..cramer is going to further bury himself tonite..

    for cramer to tout bear stearns at $69 & then it collapses to $2.00 a share 7 weeks later..is grounds for termination..when an expert picks a stock and it drops 50% , like the rest of the market..that is excusable.but touting bear stearns weeks before it loses 97% of its value..was a WOEFUL prediction.

  • Anybody else trust Letterman and Comedy Central more than they trust newspapers, business news outlets and FOX? The main outlets discribe how resplendent the Emperors News Clothes look, while Comedy Central and Letterman laugh at his tramp stamp and the size of his genitalia.

  • Booyah TurkeeMan!

  • Good point, Obama has been bailing out his buddies on Wall Street.

    It is like Bewitched, Dan is for Oil or the Banks.

  • All of those bailouts happened before January 20th...

  • Bush Puppet, Bama Puppet.

    What's the diff?

    Bankers or Oilers?

  • The difference is that Obama was originally a community worker,constitutional law professor, and civil rights lawyer, before becoming a politician. Whereas Bush was a CEO and had no other career. Obama has at least had a career that has put him in contact with "real" i.e. non corporate, people. A huge improvement. Whether it is enough to get us out of the Bush mess, it is hard to tell, but at least it is not as bad as it used to be.

    Oh and remember who bailed out the bankers? It was Bush...

  • Obama is a Communist, maybe you are to, but philosophically I am opposed to it.

    Bush was a failure, but Obama has kept all his policies, why? Obama is supporting the bailouts, now he adds more spending.

    10 planks of Communism, wiki it.

  • a communist? I went out with a communist for a short while, so I know what they believe.(I dont believe in it, so we are not together now). Obama's policies are comparatively left wing compared to Bush,but massively short of communism.Obama is not keeping the Bush policies,but it is impossible to just do a complete 180 turn overnight. He has been in office for a month.Some policies may be similar, but just because Bush was incompetent and probably corrupt, does not mean he was wrong ALL the time

  • You obviously don't know what communism is

  • Here's how you know this guy doesn't know shit, he believes what Wikipedia is telling him.

  • Those pretty blue numbers hovering on the top-right of any claim? A link to a legit source.

  • No there not legitimate sources, their websites. A legitimate source would be something like a peer reviewed journal. Those pretty blue numbers lead you to pretty websites that far more often then not are filled with unverified pretty shit. Once in a blue moon they may lead to a legitimate source, but not in the majority of cases.

  • Read the Wikipedia rules. There definition of certifiable source is the same that Webster-Miriam uses.

    Studies have shown that Wiki is 99 percent accurate, the issue is with framing of certain issues. On larger articles, it is strictly moderated and policed.

  • What study are you citing exactly? Here's a little test you can do yourself, type UFO into Wikipedia, and see what you get. Just about a hundred websites, non of them peer reviewed journals. If it ain't peer reviewed it ain't worth shit. Try going to college, see if your professors will accept crapipedia, as a legitimate scholarly website, they won't.

  • Also, corrections on Wikipedia can take weeks, months even years to correct, if they're ever corrected at all.

  • It depends on the size and traffic the article receives. If no one sees the vandalization or bad link, it probably won't get changed.

  • If something is in the news, then one of the nerds will fact check the wikipedia listing. That is what some people do, all day long. They feel it is their duty.

  • Exactly my point. These "nerds" will fact check it, by going to some bullshit website and finding an article, that there's a decent chance is worthless. I can't believe how many people are so willing to defend this site. Is there even a single learning institution in this country that will accept Wiki anything as a reliable source?

  • They are far more anal than that. They will go back through newspaper archives and peer reviewed journals, watch hours and hours of old TV shows, trying to get the most reliable source. It is a serious business to them. And they compete with each other. Never underestimate a determined intelligent nerd.

  • I never would. I don't doubt that you're at least partially correct, I'm sure some research things properly. However if you read the citations made on a typical random article they don't use proper sources, by in large. There is a reason that there is not a single college in the U.S., or I'd bet abroad, that accepts Wiki anything as a reliable source.

  • I agree with not using Wikipedia as your only reliable source, but it is a VERY good starting point. It contains all what those nerds consider to be the essential facts of a situation. You can search it, get a good overview, then look elsewhere to find out more, to verify that data. And then, if that data is not verifyable, you can go back and correct that error yourself!

  • Yeah I agree it's a good starting point, in the same way t.v. is a good starting point. The problem is it just isn't reliable enough for anything even moderately important, it's not a question of whether or not to use it as your only reliable source, it's not reliable at all. Lastly you seem to believe that data is being constantly modified, while that may be the idea it's certainly not the practice. Pages can go months, even years without being corrected.

  • Pages might go for months or years without being corrected, but those pages are ones that are not frequented very much.

    And as for it not being reliable, That depends on what your subject matter is. The nerds who take care of the Doctor Who or Star Trek pages are extremely anal about their facts.

  • You're making my point for me, sure it's fine if you're looking up shit like Star Trek. In my last post please note I said anything "even moderately important" Star Trek doesn't qualify. I please don't come back at me with "but Star Trek is really important to some people" I know it is we all have things we like that aren't important, me included. This whole argument began with someone saying Obama was a communist because of his retarded understanding of an incorrect Wikipedia page.

  • Somebody put that on a wikipedia page? OK, yep, you have swayed me to your argument.

    I think we can say that Wikipedia must be taken with a grain of salt. While much of the stuff may be correct, sometimes bullshit does slip in. Of course, I would have to check wikipedia about it, but if it did say he was communist, I think one of the nerds would have deleted that reference by now.

  • Ok I don't want you to misunderstand what I wrote. This whole argument began with someone saying that Obama was a communist because of what he read on Wikipedia. You can read the guys comment, although it is a few pages back. I said the guy was an idiot, because as his source he was citing Wikipedia. Now, for the record, even if that were written in a peer reviewed journal I'd be skeptical to say the least, but written in Wikipedia it's worth less than nothing.

  • What you're talking about is socialism, which, in an economic crisis, is necessary. Spending to stimulate the economy is really what the government would need to do. A freeze in spending would be devastating for an already hurting economy. Sure, no one likes taxes and spending, but no one likes recession either. The Bailouts are a form of trying to stop a massive recession that all-out capitalism, active during the Bush years, helped to cause by letting irresponsible people control money.

  • Watch:

    The Obama Deception

    It's all a joke.

    But yes the banks should have been left to fail everything should go to heck. That way the solvent good businesses can scoop the bad ones up and grow.

    Productive, tax paying business, that hire.

  • tell me how Obama is a communist. Obama kept ALL his policies, which ones? he's only been in office for 50 some-odd days... he's already overturned a lot of Bush's policies. FDR spent a lot of money and nationalized the banks, I guess you believe he was a communist and a socialist too, am I right?

  • Obama voted for them as a senator

  • Obama might have voted for the bailouts (McCain was busy in New York avoiding being on Letterman) but they were rammed through. Nobody had a chance to read them, and those who wrote the bailouts just gave the banks what they wanted. But they had to sign the bailout, otherwise the whole banking system may have collapsed. However, I do think that there should have been more oversight. Far more oversight. I mean these jerks in the banks are still flying about in jets with million dollar bonuses.

  • dumbass

  • not really

    you guys have no idea what you're talking about

    some of the smartest people on wall street had no idea what was coming for bear stearns and lehmann - these were black swan events that no one could have predicted, and blaming CNBC (who are just a bunch of journalists) for not seeing it coming is just ridiculous

    I am not a big fan of the cheerleading they do at cnbc, but to say stuff like, "they suck coz they didn't see the collapse of bear stearns or lehmann" is extremely naive

  • black swan moments? Anybody within those organisations who had access to the numbers and did NOT work out what was going to happen, deserves to lose all their money. They were asking for trillions of dollars, because they are SCARED. They put all their money into the Great Bubble, and now the bubble has collapsed. And if they told anybody, it would have collapsed sooner. That is why the business networks didnt know, because (a) they would not tell them, and (b) they did not want to know.

  • firstly, nobody knows how to value this stuff - and marked to market accounting has made it even worse

    finally, sure everybody thought that lehmann and bear were going to lose money, but nobody, absolutely NOBODY had any idea that these firms were going to collapse completely

    annd btw, they didn't collapse coz of their paper losses, they collapsed coz of a bank run on them -- which could very much be termed as a black swan

  • Those who were managing things day to day would have had some kind of inkling, they were doing all kinds of tricks to chalk up tomorrow's profits today, and once the discrepancy between the real profits and what they actually had was made apparent, then the rumors would have flown, those in the know would have taken their money out, and that would have started the run. Runs on stock do not take place in a vaccuum. They happen because somebody who owns shares knows something. They sell, More sell

  • lol the real profits from the year before were real - those in the 'know' i.e. bear insiders lost 90% of their net worth (the chairman went from almost a billion dollars in net worth to 60 mil in a span of 2-3 months)... you think this is the same/similar to enron - it couldn't have been more different - i'm not saying that investment banks did all the right things, they fucked up, along with a lot of other people - proven financial genius's like warren buffet have not been immune to this crisis

  • So they had a system in place in which they did not know that the Mortgage crisis (which we DID see coming) would completely dry up the supplies of cash available to loan? Even I could see that the complicated way they were raising money for subprime mortgage bonds was pretty much a ponzi scheme, and much of the gains were illusory. Remember the "jobless recovery" that happened under Bush? The reason behind it was that there were no real gains, i.e. jobs happening in the economy.

  • and in todays transparent markets, a run by the insiders would be more than suicide for the insiders themselves - again, im not saying that it couldn't happen - but with a day after bear's collapse everybody involved testifying in front of congress etc. are a big deal

    i say it again, everybody knew these firms fucked up (they weren't the only ones - there was somebody buying these houses you know) - but they didn't deserve to go under - and i don't think you're being fair to a bunch of

  • It would take only one person bailing to start a run by insiders. That is what happened at Enron - Lay and Skilling sold, sold, sold, while at the same time telling their employees to buy, buy, buy. Likewise, the insiders here were selling while telling the Business Networks that everything was OK with the world, so they could get out with most of their cash intact before the REAL run happened. They knew what a house of cards they had become.

  • actually many many people have predicted this, but they were not listened to. People like Warren Buffett, Paul Krugman, Nouriel Rubini, etc. And the banks that failed are not suffering from bank run, they are actually insolvent. They have lost so much money that it is impossible for them to keep on running.

  • And all this incest isn't limited to BUSINSS Networks. Have you paid attention to the political news coverage over the past decade? Achievetrons and their cheerleaders, what a circus.

  • most of those networks that talk about business news are actually propagandists for an investment firm, not actually a news agency. they are simply triein to sell their stock not give u stock news.

  • Peter Schiff and Ron Paul called the crisis, but the financial networks didn't give them enough airtime, and mostly, particularly in the case of Peter Schiff, sidelined and ridiculed their warnings.

  • i have watched cnbc almost everyday for 10 years. recently they made me sick! and there were just so many bush like comments and moments i so wanted to expose to jon's show. and thanks! he did it.

  • haha you know who saw it coming Glenn Beck, lol ironic

  • He's at it again. Remember crossfire?

  • xD. Remember what happened to that show? Oh yes... fond fond memories.

  • He ate him/them alive on the show and now this? CNBC is goooone!

  • True that. They'll be off the air in 6 weeks at this rate. It's Crossfire, part deux...

  • Priceless!

  • Stewart gets his information from a blogger, who is excellent at providing details on all of this CNBC stuff...Don Harrold. Check his stuff out.

  • I like don harrolds quote " Money is the answer to everything. Dont believe me? Look it up. "

    lol so simple

  • jon stewart was NOT cherry picking CRAMERS picks....for a stock 'expert' like cramer to tout BEAR STERNS at $69 a share....and then have it collapses to $2.00 a share 7 wks later.....is a woeful prediction by cramer....and cramer is taking justified HEAT for that prediction..cramer and santelli should both go work for FOX..cramer's pea sized brain would mesh well with those idiots o'reilly and hannity.

  • There is a pattern with this kind of thing. They were doing it with Enron right up to the point where it collapsed, too.

  • Stewart doesnt go ballistic in the exact way Cenk does, but just as effective. You can def. tell when both John and Cenk are truly pissed about a story they are covering.

  • jazz man???

  • Jon Stewart.

    Dismantling the media, one channel at a time.

  • BLAM!

  • i just want to know when and who is going to issue the blanket aplogy to all the CRAZY conspiacy theorist who after all were 100 percent right lets give them a show

  • hm... the conspiracy network

    CFR today (5a-9a)

    Federal Reserve middays (9a-12p)

    Bilderburg lunch hour (12p-3p)

    NWO show (3p-7p)

    Free for all (7p-10p)

    Illuminati late night (10p-1a)

    Coast to Coast AM w/ George Noory (1a-5a)

    Any other ideas? (note, only Coast to Coast is an actual show on 500+ affiliates)

  • Don't fuck with John Stewart.

  • it's JON like from garfield

  • LOL nice way too explain itxD

    Jon Stewart is amazing! Love him!

  • lol my family stopped listening to those guys since we lost our life-savings on citibank and AIG. So we just see those guys on there (we watch cause they display the stock numbers) and laugh at how loud they talk just to convince you.

  • Am I watching different business channels then everyone else? Bloomberg and CNBC had a lot of people telling the viewers this crisis was coming. You are confused about what they do. They follow the stock market and bring guests in to discuss what is happening. BOTH channels had Lousie Yamada on who said at the end of 2007 that we are in the beginning of a structural bear market. I could make a montage from CNBC which got everything right. BTW economics is nothing like the sciences.

  • Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are a great "fake news" duo. Awesome!

  • Does CNBC hire actual economists?

  • 3 networks called to the people "save us" and we said NO!

  • There is no true journalism in corporate media.

  • Stephen Colbert's name slipped your mind for over 3 seconds.

    Kill yourself

  • en(dot)wikipedia(dot)org / wiki / Self-fulfilling_prophecy

    Too many people think the end of the world and/or WW3 is coming...

  • Good job Cenk. I watched CNBC for a year and it was a waste of time.

  • Welcome to "The Young Turds" where we spew leftwing shit.

    Keep your comments coming and remember Obama will change the world. Enroll your kids in the obama youth groups and get in obama's civilian military. Where Hitler failed Obama will succeed.

  • he didnt just mank fun of CNBC but also fox and cnn

  • These investors ARE IN IT FOR THEMSELVES (which is okay because it only works that way). If you think that any of them will give you information that will put you in a better position than them you're being stupid. My own 401k people sat down with me last Aug and couldn't explain why their funds were all heavy in financials. I put my money in their cash equivalent fund and they thought I was crazy. I have earned money throughout this collapse. On top of that I'm not that smart I'm just realistic
