CNBC Loses One Of Its Calmer Less Strident Voices


TW: I have watched too much CNBC over the years. Many perhaps a majority of its journalists do not impress me. They are either conduits for corporate propaganda (e.g. Bartiromo etc.), right-wing flacks like Kudlow and Dennis Neale or empty suits. Dylan Ratigan tended to be less bombastic and level-headed about the whole thing. Unfortunately he is leaving. Why? who knows given the out-sized egos of these folks. One rumor had it that he wanted to the pursue the line of thought he outlined on a show last October, "how did we get in this mess?"
