Peanut Butter and Jelly Lunch


How about that as a new title to your segment that you call “Power Lunch”.  Let's face facts there is no power in your lunchtime reporting.  Or how about atrophy lunch? You couldn't lift a 10 lb. dumbbell.   Point is that when are you going to stop reporting nonsense.  There is no interest in most of your stories on any of your segments.  You are worse than ESPN filling us with stats that mean NOTHING.  Here is one you reported this past Friday.  The Dow on it's way to the 5th out of 6th week gain.  Is that really news?  Especially during the day?  When are you going to get new writers?  How about giving us reporters that have the gift to give us real news not useless information and drivel.  The stock market collapsed and you are still doing business as usual.  No change in your programming and you continue to have people like Suze Orman do a show about personal finance.  She couldn't advise a groundhog whether to ignore his shadow or not! Kramer there is another nut job. The world according to Kramer??  I would listen to what Garp has to say first than what that idiot reports.

You are not guilty on all counts there are times when you do report news that is heartfelt and newsworthy but come on people wake up, the world has changed and you keep reporting things like "the market is acting spooky today" AYKM! Spooky????  I see that that goof ball with the glasses is gone from your show, you know the guy that told those life insurance agents before we hit bottom that the only reason they were talking about life insurance was because the market was down.  How about if you did a story about market value versus book value?  Don't you think that might be a useful story?  People need to have both in their lives. Money they can count on when their market values are in the dumper.  I see your program at the gym and the biggest laugh I get is when you have up to 8 talking heads and no one is saying anything!
