Dolls–I noticed that you’ve worked yourselves into a lather trying to figure out what the impetus was for the slightly unorthodox dialogue that down yesterday afternoon. Just so we can move on–there was no insane Merrill Lynch story that had to be killed. I have it on very good authority–let’s call him one of “my sources“–that the problem was one man’s issue with the other asking “What have you got?” as opposed to something to the effect of “Hereeeeee’s Charlie with the big, huge, earth shattering Merrill story!” Apparently this was not the first time that crazy interrogative statement has been used between the two parties on-air, but it was certainly the last straw.

DId they tell him to take Friday off?
First!
I thought it was pretty obvious he was just peeved at the intro and was playing “grammar nazi” with him (have vs got)
@2- it had nothing to do with grammar. it had to do with the explanation above. he wanted it presented as “a big scoop”
I think Charlie may have been hitting the Halloween candy a bit early.
Watching them individually or as a group is a lot like wiping dog shit off your shoes.
Offensive presentation and people.
No Sleeves is a chump.
RATigan the self important regergitating hollow head just needed a little reminder of how useless he is. What have you got? as if Charlie was bringing the arrogant talking head his coffe. Charlie just reminding the empty suit that with out him the Rat has only what someone else provided.
Simply put Gas Bag is just a pompous pimple on the ass of wall street
@7 bullseye
What have I got? A nice greasy gabagool sandwich, that’s what I got!
Bess, what have you got?!
7, do you like the smell of your own farts?
@7- it wasn’t a breaking story in any way. it was the story he’s been reporting all week about the possible shuffling that’ll occur among thain, flemming et al with the b of a merger. the fact that cnbc was letting him repeat it again is ridiculous on its own. the fact that he’s going to get pissed that ratigan doesn’t give him some big blow job of an intro is absurd.
i seriously don’t see what was wrong with dylan saying ‘what have you got.’ what a fucking prima donna.
I GOT TWO TURN TABLES AND MICROPHONE!
dollars to doughnuts both these d-bags have already commented in this thread as guest ripping the other
i agree that “what have you got?” probably isn’t the best way to be introduced, but CG has got to keep it together.
as mr. pink would say, “am i the only fucking professional here!?”
@12– who doesn’t?
@13 what does that matter?
RAtigan is talking head..Reads intro and what ever else is writen for him.
If he was replaced, show would have the same content with a better less arrogant and annoying delivery.
Charlie was just reminding the Rat where the “news” he gets to read comes from.
The Rat got Fragged.. simple.
that would be excellent they just ripped each other apart posting as guests
if charlie was pissed about the intro he could’ve taken 10 seconds to playfully joke about it, not the entire fucking segment. he wasted a minute of air-time and said NOTHING. grow the fuck up and be a professional.
When the producers lose control you either fire the producers or give the prima donnas a suspension for unprofessional behavior. Is Gaspar on the air today or is he out trick-or-treating?
Dylan Ratigan does not know how to use the internet, and therefore cannot rip CG as a guest.
hey @ 12, no but your mother likes the smell of my farts.
@12 ask your wife.. she request a fart as she tosses my salad.
New Dealbreaker swag coffee cup logo: “What Have You Got?”
Fuck Ratigan. Chuck was right with how he handled it. Leaving Dylan with nothing on the teleprompter was sweet revenge for his condescending bullshit.
Ratigan: please eat some broken glass.
Charlie Gasparino is Perez Hilton in a $900 suit peddling rumors, gossip and innuendo… and I know first hand he’s been played more than a few times by some of his ‘contacts’. Great example was when he was manipulated by the brokerage side of ML during the O’Neil countdown… he took the bait and swallowed the hook. Thats what bottom feeders do.
Ratigan? He’s GREAT for TV; his schtick is a perfect mix of Joe The Plumber meets Gordon Gekko… and the underinformed (read: 95% of the country) eat it up like peach cobbler.
I’d give Dilly a “7″ most days… I’d give Gasbag a “1″ on his best day.
Ratigan is a good egg — gasfacimo is a total citrull’ chi mangia il capodicazzo
asking us to pick one of these two to defend is like being asked a riddle by the sphinx.
Ratigan has a great on-air personality, but I have heard from others that he is an eccentric MFer off the air. Gasparino should be able to put him in his place once in a while, but you *don’t pull that crap on the air.* Then it’s you who looks like the tool.
@15…Thanks! I remember the line. It is going through my head over and over and over. But I can’t remember where it comes from.
Someone please help! make it stop! make it stop!
‘eats dick’? you dago-ass, goomba, soprasada-eating “Fast Money” guys need to realize- there’s a reason people on the street downplay any italian heritage they have… they’re the dumbest in Western Europe!
What have I got?
I’ll tell you what I’ve got…

Fuck that – Sirius is a better sound track.

MAIL IT IN! JUST MAIL IT IN!
What was up with Matt Nesto today. He said he wished he had the blue light special from K mart and he gave a Wooo Wooo about some stock. Are they all getting slap happy over there?
CG to break news on Muffie’s halloween costume…
@34 Thats why my dago male ancestors used your female ancestors as cumm dumps for centuries jelous asshole.
Match your ancestors contributions to civilization with the dago’s.
Tell me what youve got little mama…
SO OBVIOUS–Ratigan is hitting it with one of Charlie’s ex’s, and Charlie just found out and lost it on the air…with the unspoken impetus causing what you watched in mind, you are only left to ask if it is Melissa Lee whom Dylan is kicking it with, or someone of similar to higher calibur…whatever impetus means…
Well Rat is on the air today….looks liek he had a rough night…he’s looking a little puffy…lol
No sign of Gas Bag yet…maybe he took a day of to recouperate from his hissy fit.
At a dinner with Winston Churchill before the war, Nazi Foreign Minister Ribbentrop’s said: “The next war will be different for we will have the Italians on our side.”
Churchill’s reply: “That’s only fair – we had ‘em last time.”

@46 what’s the point.. all of europe would be german if not for USA
@46. HA! Yeah, that worked out really well for them….
The RAT believes that the credit market begins and ends with LIBOR. Will someone please write on the telepromtor that the market is a bit deeper than that.

I loved when Gasparino murdered Barry (empty suit) Ritholtz …..
I saw Charlie wandering midtown last night at about 9:00 pm. He was mumbling into his cellphone with a crazed grin on his face at corner of 57 & Mad. I hope he made it home ok…
Sounds like Charlie has been brooding over Ratigan moonlighting at another NBC property and getting good reviews from the show’s anchors.
@34
technically, it’s “eats dick head”
It’s also “sopresatta”
…but since you are obviously an uncultured northern barbarian, probably descended from the blonde hordes that the legions routinely boffed the snot out of, we’ll let it slide.
And you’re welcome for all the civil engineering, legal system, and alphabet. Now, get back to frying your schnitzel, Hans.
It’s always a testosterone contest between those two. CNBC should put them in an octagon and let them rip each other’s face off.
@37-38……..Thank you
When you have to go back two centuries to find a military to be proud of, well, enough said.
PS conquering Ethiopians doesn’t count.
Are we seeing counterparty risk on CNBC? Who would Gasparino like to trade with?
@56
but you do agree- the italians that you encounter on the street (front office- back office is *loaded* with goombas who still make ‘feet wine’ in brooklyn) are pretty_damn_ashamed of their heritage… they don’t want to look like the classless, uncouth buffoons that run around europe, nor be conflated with the ‘goodfella’ image. When was the last time you met a banker with a brooklyn-dago accent? and remember: italian-americans are neither ‘old money’, nor bluebloods…
BTW, what have Italians done in the past century, other than drive its southern region into third-world territory?
@ 61 – can’t argue with the “goomba” factor – it’s there. But nobody makes homemade wine by stomping it – that’s just gross — we use a friggin press.
Italy’s economy is larger than the UK’s — even with the retarded southern 1/3, which is probably largely as frigged up as it is in large part because anyone there with any brains emigrated between 1890 and 1920.

anyone know what the ML story was?

What the hell did “Shoot to the capitalist system” mean?
A few weeks ago, somebody posted a phone number on one of these threads and said it was Gasbag’s. I couldn’t imagine it was his actual number. I called it and sure enough it was his voice mail. I didn’t leave a message. Within 30 seconds he called the number back and was barking through the phone, “Who is this, who do you work for, why are you calling this number?” What an ass clown.
Reminds me a a scene from Pulp Fiction when Winston Wolf has to explain why he is “curt” with the other fellow.

@62 – uk’s gdp is greater than italy’s

@ 73 not after the latest finance implosion. Wait till next year, you’ll see — UK will wither like a Flomaxed prostate. Italians still actually make and sell real stuff.
WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON IN CNBC??????????
D’ Rat vs C’ Gas is the new Erin Burnett VS Maria Bartiromo
Yes, it’s the Money Hunkie VS Street Walkie Talkie.
Did CNBC executives planted the fights? Sounds familiar?
One of them said “it’s a female fantasy thing”.The other said “someone is doing this, planting this, because it puts more attention on the network”.
Wonder if one of them dated a female Citi executive during a trip to Shanghai on private jet?
I’m sure one each one has ” 8 Ways To impress Me”.
Hey Gasbag. We all know you read these posts – because we can plainly see that a number of them are from you. So enjoy this one = You are a fucking moron. You knowlege of finance is about at strong as a fart in a wind storm. You are a fucking Neanderthal who can barely master the English language.
FYI – “d”‘s and “t”‘s are not interchangable when spoken and there is no such words as Dees, Doos or Dem in the English language. And, further, please refrain from saying “alls” as the word is already plural.
Please recognize your place in society. You are simply a reporter – not a news maker. Surely not a news breaker. You are not an expert on anything and know just enough about finance to be dangerous. Your opinon would be far better not stated as it is universally incorrect and generally annoying. While you seem to have a high opinion of yourself, you are a best barely a step ahead of your roots as a bus boy.
Dylan has more talent in his Dick than you have in your entire body.
Finally, does anybody here have this moron’s cell phone number? Would love to call him directly and express these opinions to his pathetic face.

WOW Super post #78. I have never seen is expressed so cogently.
Ditto 78&79. Right on.
lol. 78. Just waiting to see Gasbagarumor reply to your post.
I find Charlie Gasparino to be one of the most intelligent, knowledgeable, and insightful commentators on all of CNBC. That there is so much dislike of him is really surprising. On a network based around fluff, he’s one of the few beacons of substance that provides actionable news.
Gasbag likes to think he’s an important mover and shaker but everyone mostly just laughs at him.
Gasbag is a joke.
The difference between Dealbreaker and CNBC is that Dealbreaker is a tabloid which actually has some real news stories. CNBC pretends to be a serious news channel, but is no better than a tabloi
d and clearly inferior to dealbreaker….Gasbag and Ol’Joe kernan and the pretty boy are just the worst of a “subprime” crew….
