Last night the doors of the meatpacking district’s Lotus opened up for a party in honor of Jim Cramer’s new book, “Stay Mad For Life.”
The party was hosted by CNBC President Mark Hoffman. During a speech introducing Cramer, Hoffman noted CNBC was just completing their highest rated November since 2000.(Volatility is good for financial news networks.) He also mentioned that Cramer had signed a new, multi-year deal with the network. Media Bistro’s TVNewser reveals that Hoffman also mentioned that he had heard a “big storm” was coming on October 15, the date Fox Business launched, but that CNBC hasn’t “had to move the thermostat at all.”
TV Newser continues:
Asked for a response, an FBN spokesperson said, “Doesn’t Jim need ratings first before wiping the floor with us?”
A host of CNBC types attended the party, including Cramer’s stop trading partner “Erin Burnett.” (Related: anyone else notice how good she looks in that low-cut red number she’s sporting today?) We kind of suspect Cramer is afraid of Bess–something about her love for our bobble-head version of him or calling his nephew Cliff Mason inept when it comes to ladies–so we weren’t terribly surprised no-one invited us.
Incidentally: Lotus is still open? Who knew? We haven’t even thought about that place for at least two years. Probably three.
Stay Mad Party [TV Newsers]
Yes, Erin looks really good today. And way way way better than yesterday’s leather number.
“Related: anyone else notice how good she looks in that low-cut red number she’s sporting today?”
Jim, thanks for helping me get SHLD up near 200 earlier this year. Love, Eddie
anon and loser…get back to work. Who really cares? She’s the smartest commentator they have, that’s what is a tad bit more important. And her ever-present smirk is priceless…
That leather number was god awful. I don’t even think it was leather… Pleather maybe? She still rules tho. I admit it, I have a girl crush on her.
who called for a revival of the feminist movement? havent seen her at all today, wishin i had tho
She’d be more trustworthy if she was topless. Or at least braless with some 40DDD implants.

She’d be more trustworthy if she had a rack like bess, or was licking bess’s rack
Much like Lotus, Cramer is only relevant to people who have the misfortune of living in Jersey.
Funny about NJ Its a bad place to be, yet it seems everyone is from there. Bess included.
80% of the “financial news” boobs in New York work at Fox Biz.
Seriously, though, there are two real big reasons I like the reporting of Ms. Claman! Me and Buffett…great minds, etc….
I was at the party…Cramer is a funny drunk.
If I owned New Jersey and Hell, I’d live in Hell and rent out NJ. Lot of very interesting people in Hell.
Even before Murdoch is legally running the Dow Jones joint, Cramer has been targeted by DJ for a while now. He must be doing something the Murdoch crowd doesn’t like. Tough times for Fox Biz, but hey, there’s always Apple Dubai to the rescue.
Can someone get an invitation for Carney for one of such parties, once and for all? I hate his whining.
Actually, we’re not complaining. We just wanted to let people know we were reporting on an event that we didn’t attend. I met some friends at Tom & Jerry’s, took a girl to dinner at Piadina on 10th Street and followed it up with drinks at Klimat, the new Polish bar on East 7th. All in all, I’d say it was a far better night than any book party would have been. Especially a book party at Lotus.
Anon;I was at the party..Cramer is a funy drunk.
Did you see Erin there? Is she that pretty in person?
She’s smoking hot on TV…

i have a girl crush on her,too. i hope she won’t fall in love with one of those Arabs….she might ended as one of the wives..they are allowed up to 4.you know, money has power.
erin is a huge letdown in person
I enjoy listening to Erin but I have a hard time listening to Jim screech on. Erin does a great job reporting the financial news actually. I’d watch her porn movies too. Wouldn’t you like to see her do a remake of the Paris Hilton series (although please not with Jim Cramer playing the male roll). I’m not suggesting she would consider it.
Erin Burnett is absolutely awful. Her fake, annoying laugh drives me insane. I hate the way she laughs at her own silly little jokes. It’s as if some producer told her: try to attempt to be light- hearted and funny. She can’t do it. She’s not funny. And I’m also sick and tired of her relentless pumping of China and the Middle East. Sometimes, her cheerleading is so loud, I think she is a Middle Eastern/Chinese spy….Manchurian TV News Anchor.
Andy Taboo: you sound so insane!You must be gay or something.Erin is smart and very attractive.She has every reason to relentlessly pump China. If you own a house before this mortgage problem you should thank China for your low interest rate and for buying most, if not all, U.S exports which help the economy esp time like this.
Any male specie who is not attracted to Erin has a problem…
cramer is freaking annoying.iI don’t waste time for Stop Trading segment nor mad Money.
