I'm watching Ms. Wall Street on CNN

[BainsBane]

Erin Burnett, and she can't stop throwing bombs at the President. She says he "dodged" questions about the Petraeus investigation at his news conference and "blamed" the FBI. She says the Dow tanked today right after he said he would raise marginal tax rates (presumably they paid no attention during the election.)
She has Rand Paul on to talk about President Obama's comments at the press conference about Susan Rice. At this point I'll be shocked if she doesn't blow Paul.

1. she has one of the smallest CNN viewing audiences. she's terrible.

[BainsBane]

2. I decided to watch her

because earlier in the week she has some interesting coverage of the Petraeus matter. I won't be making it a habit.

4. her show is boring and amateurish.

I doubt it will last... unless she is doing a "Paula Broadwell" with someone in CNN management.

[BainsBane]

5. she is part of their play to pick up Fox viewers

but it isn't working. They all think CNN is a liberal mouthpiece anyway.

3. This time we are not going to sit by while the shrills distort. This fight is going to be taken to

The people.

The corporate media didn't get their guy in and their predictions we wrong

They will look like fools again and again

6. Blueblood Beijing Burnett with her usual expert-level corporatory fluffery . . .

She migrated from CNBC (a far-right wing outhouse in it's own right) as a Goldman Sachs alum and ardent defender of zero-sum trade with China and financial deregulation. She's also married to a Citi exec, loves anything Republican and has been spoiled rotten from jump.

7. I knew she had been on CNBC

but not the point about being married to a Citibank exec. That makes sense.
