His tour of the NBC empire to "defend" himself was hilarious.

I expect his appearance with Stewart to be anticlimactic.

I've just discovered the perfect guide to market timing...just turn on Cramer, and do the exact opposite! No wonder I sold my gold at 1000, just when I realized Cramer was now recommending it.

Firms, whole sectors, should pay Cramer tonnes of money NOT to recommend them.

I watched it for the first time in prolly five years a few months ago and I felt like it was Fox News for people with top hats.

Jim Cramer: Obama is causing the greatest destruction of wealth I have ever seen by a president
Salon.com has a great article on this. When you claim your pundit is god and he screws up every call then you have to find a scape goat. CNBC's mime has become that if we are right then it is because we are gods but if we are wrong in our crappy predictions thing we're going to blame the easiest target out there; The President. What a fricking joke. I'm not surprised you're dumb enough to believe their schtick.

Cramer wasn't criticized for his politics or policy positions, he was lambasted for his market advise and above all his HUBRIS and through him the hubris of the entire CULTURE of Wall Street. Cramer's claims to have "been" (past tense) a big supporter of Obama and inference that some how that makes him immune to criticism from liberal satirists like Stewart completely misses the point and only reinforces Stewarts satire. This will end with Cramer's utter humiliation and if were lucky his show will be canceled much like happened the last time someone 'threw down' with Stewart, remember Paul Begala?

It's just amusing when an Obama supporter attacks him (Obama) now This gives Cramer the ability to ultimately be right no matter what. It's like betting scams that send opposite predictions to different customer sets then claiming they are "documented 100% correct!"

That said, I hope Stewart rips him a new one tonight.

I only saw bits of a couple episodes, but it seems like the Colbert report is still pretty good.

The Daily Show went from sucking to blowing after Obama got elected.
This is simply because Bush is far funnier than Obama. Other than that, the show has pretty much been the same.

The writers are probably desperately wishing for Bush to come back, except for that whole 'continued national survival' thing...

But don't worry!! In a couple years all the Fed spending will finally seep out into the real economy and then they'll really have something to ***** about...

Stewart is ripping CNBC a new one, although he has rolled a lovely series of semi-damning tapes of Cramer from the interview Oerdin referenced.

This is great stuff.

Cramer showed guts coming on TDS, I'll give him that. And he was nothing but gracious during the interview. Stewart ****ing destroyed him, and CNBC. Holy ****.

Why is it you have to go to Comedy Central to see an actual interview nowadays? What happened to the media in this country?

And apparently there is more online at thedailyshow.com.

I can't wait to see it when I get home from work.


Stewart killed Crossfire; will Mad Money still be on the air in a few months? Will Cramer make the changes he promised?

Moral of this story: If you said it, The Daily Show has it ON TAPE, so don't deny it.

Don't feel bad for Cramer. He's a snake and a manipulator; always has been.

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/20...815/703/705113

If anything, you should feel sad that the rest of the insider-trading industry is getting a pass while Cramer takes the heat.

BTW, Cramer was supposed to be on Morning Joe today and cancelled.

Which was actually a sad thing. I don't think I can forgive Stewart for that.
Wait, how did that happen, I don't think I was watching back then?

I always enjoyed Crossfire as a place where informed people from two different POVs could debate. Or do you think it was better for CNN to fill the spot with angry Lou Dobbs against the furriners or Glenn Beck?

Stewart's lectures are pablum for the uninformed. This one was particularly bad, as hindsight bias was on full display and the target of his hectoring wasn't anywhere near the center of the crisis.

All talking head political shows are a waste of time.
