Hot Sluts Are The One Thing Fox Business Can Do Right And They Can’t Even Do That

Posted by Bess Levin, Jan 11, 2008, 10:22am

And yet, despite the fact that the strippers they had on “Happy Hour” yesterday weren’t nearly as good looking as FB’s anchors, I still enjoyed the segment, for these reasons:

- “Sprites and vodkas”

- The strippers don’t get stools.

- Cody not letting the “sales are up 98 percent” comment fly.

- This exchange: "I understand your stock has a double d top...that was a joke." "Yeah...I got it."

- The blonde nodding her head pensively to Cody's insights.

- The absence of Rebecca, for contractual reasons (“The only hooch at the bar is me. It’s in my contract.”)

I used to work for "Deja Light", a "gentleman's club" in Houston while going to school. I was the "accountant". A greek guy owned it.

If you have ever worked in that sort of business you would know that there are drugs, prostitution, alcoholic excesses and rampant collaborative fraud re expenses.

Of course, that experience is why I fit in so well in finance/trading these days.

what do you have against Greek guys?

Posted by JMAN, Jan 11, 2008 10:40AM

Hes not their ideal customer because there were no dudes there.
Seriously, FBN is the lowest common denominator right?? Who would watch this and think they have anything constructive to say about the markets??
Probably the same people who watch Cramer, the guy who loved BSC at 100

"Happy Hour"...it hurts so good.

Cramer = industry shill

Posted by Inquisitor, Jan 11, 2008 10:49AM

Wow, you can get strip clubs for 3-5x EBITDA? That's amazing, no wonder they're rolling up everything in sight.

They definitely need better-looking strippers though...

Finally, FBN does something that justifies its existence

Compare a chart of various energy commodities to RICK's daily bar chart and be amazed.

"the strippers don't get stools"

Posted by slimjim, Jan 11, 2008 11:06AM

The strippers did not get stools but for some reason their ass is numb, wonder why?

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 11:06AM

who the hell watches FBN? Other than DB just to make fun? This shit is ridiculous? Cody looks like he should be working on my transmission...was that a dip he had in?

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 11:09AM

What exactly is that at 3:38 in the video? Catepillars? Do some folks like to "sell shares" onto pre-pupa insects?

Memo to FBN:

Gomez. Byrnes. Thongs. Bar Dances.

Ratings.

Posted by Bud Fox, Jan 11, 2008 11:41AM

@11:26. The first (and only) day I watched Happy Hour and FBN, I posted that they should offer wet T-shirt contest (since it was a bar). Roger or Ruppie never took me up on the idea.

Posted by Ben Dover, Jan 11, 2008 11:49AM

Does Cody like girls? Have to wonder after seeing the end of the vid...

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 11:52AM

I bet after the show, Cody was all like:

"Hey, you ladies wanna drop by for some sprites and vodkas? I'll toss in a couple HotPockets, we can play some Xbox..."

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 11:57AM

@11:49:

of course he doesn't. we all know NPH is Cody's one true eternal flame...

Posted by inIT4the$, Jan 11, 2008 12:25PM

Seriously hurtin' chicks. B*tches, man... b*tches.


I'm embarrassed FOR fox biz.

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 12:31PM

love cramer but he is embarrassing w/erin burnett, esp since she is not remotely hot or funny or intelligent.

erin is so unsexy she couldn't even be a stripper.

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 12:34PM

nah, man, don't be hatin on the strippers!

they are just workin, tryin to get by, bein exploited by the man.

(and they don't even get stools)

Posted by slimjim, Jan 11, 2008 12:58PM

Cody is a twink. Bro's before ho's- have fun at the end of the night with your bro riding you instead of some ho Cody.

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 1:02PM

i like most how cody assumes people that watch FBN dont know what EBITDA is


i assume the same thing

Those two Staten Island skanks are worthy of my poop in their mouth. Nothing more.

Dont be a hater, these girls are representative of why this country is so great.

any new posts?

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 3:27PM

FOX had a chance to be competitive with CNBC which has become almost unwatchable...and then FBN is equally unwatchable...who produces and directs the crap...the camera work is terrible..glick is pretty until she starts screeching...the abrasive blonde and avuncular old boring dude in the a.m. suck...we have to keep switching to ESPN to avoid throwing coffee mugs at the tvs.

"I understand your stock has a double d top...that was a joke." "Yeah...I got it."

C'mon! PERFECT opportunity to respond "You know Cody, I prefer to think of our stock as 'topless'."

Brilliant!

i want to see Dagen McD do a pole dance in her wicca gown

Posted by analyst, Jan 11, 2008 4:31PM

The stripper in the red dress went to shake Cody's hand at the end and he totally dissed her! She's probably tar and feathering herself as I type "I got dissed by that sprite and vodka drinking bastard!! life just isn't worth it anymore!!"

Posted by , Jan 11, 2008 4:39PM

She was already loaded...Cody keeps a nice big pitcher of sloe gin fizzes just off camera for the guests.

Posted by Cody is a bum, Jan 11, 2008 4:51PM

Anyone else notice how much of a bum Cody is? He closed his hedge fund just like Sykes and now look at this crap he does for Faux News. I knew that guy was a loser..
