plus each has to have a CFA to be on the show

Thanks. I had never bothered to know the name of that arrogant windbag who is on in the morning on CNBC. When I read your post, I looked him up. Yep. It's Joe Kernen.
You are right. He needs to go. Joe Kernen not only talks too much, he is especially into talking over top of women. He was so incredibly rude to a woman who was a guest one day recently that I composed a complaint to CNBC -- but like a lot of those things I compose in my head, it remains there. He interrupted her constantly and just kept on blathering his opinions. He is old enough to remember that 70s term "Male Chauvinist Pig" and whether he realizes it or not, he comes across as a perfect example of one when he is sharing the screen with a smart woman. Maybe that's his schtick. I am sure it flies just fine with like-minded dinosaurs in the viewing audience.
Joe Kernen is the reason I turn CNBC OFF when he is on. . .
Anyway, thanks for the Bloomberg suggestion. I will see if I can find it.
