Needed: A working-person's business channel to combat CNBC/FOX News Business propaganda
Every time I walk into a place that has CNBC running, I find myself wishing I had brought a rock to throw at the TV set.

1. Me too. My dad used to keep CNBC on 8 hours a day
for the stock ticker, but he had the good sense to keep the sound muted.

However, the working person's alternative is here in the Economy forum, as well as at various blogs like Dr. Housing Bubble.

Anybody who gets onto a TV screen is a corporate shill, which is why I don't watch either the biz or news channels. Life is to short to spend getting lied to.
