When we last checked in with Dennis Kneale and Charlie Gasparino, C was asking D if he used hookers and D was going circus freak crazy over the inquiry. Now, via mediabistro, here is the clip from earlier today in which Dennis Kneale and Charlie Gasparino's on-air debate regarding whether or not Vikram Pandit's gotta go devolves into a shouting match only dogs can hear/understand.
"No, You're More Embarassing" "No, You're More Embarassing" "No, You," No, You," "YOU," "You"

Look, Charlie has value because he eavesdrops at San Pietro and gets Wall Street players drunk at Elaine's.
And he's old school. Floors are closing, Grasso is a distant memory - Charlie (like Art Cash-in) is an homage to the gritty old days when New York was the financial center of the world.
Dennis Kneale is an example of everything that is wrong with CNBC. Does he have any sources in business or finance? Has he ever had a scoop? Does he add any kind of insight?
No. He just squeaks and squawks and blathers on and picks idiotic fights with reporters and guests.
CNBC - please save GE a little cash and unload Maria, Dennis, and maybe even Dylan!

@2. Brilliant. Couldn't have said it better myself. The way GE is going, the "expensive" help might be packing up (And I own GE shares...d@Mit).
Isn't DK a FoxBiZ reject? He tried to replace Kudlow the other night and his voice cracked more times than a 13yr old boy hitting "manhood."
I would suggest that DK go back to selling manbags, cheap cufflinks, and rainbow striped shirts at BR, but I think GAP is going out of business?
Anyhow...somebody made the point weeks ago that the day that people forget about Biz news as entertainment is the day Biz news returns (I believe the example was the late Louis Rukeyser's "Wall Street Week").

Yeah, 5, I think you nailed it, the demise of business news began when MPT shit-canned Rukeyser.
Is "Wall $treet Week with Fortune" still running?

Is it me or has Chaz started dying his hair? Also, is his face is getting a little Micky Rourke/Ray Liotta. Too much botox or the start of some scary plastic work?
Bess, is there a poll out there for this?

ah, "mr. edutainment". . . .poor dennis, one wonders if he justifies his performances as "good tv". charlie is a lot of things, and some of them are less good, but poor dennis must be on screen solely to make it look like everyone else is making reasoned and knowledgeable points. oh, and three words: face for radio.

That Kneale has a gig on CNBC with, as the above have pointed out, nary a clue as to what he's talking about, makes me wonder about a career change, I mean hell, it can't be that hard to get a gig on CNBC with jokers like kneale sitting pretty (ugly, whatever)

The thing that worries me is that none of the people we write about or their bosses ever read the way we feel. They wouldn't do anything even if a member of their family told them this: I don't know who you are &2.....but, I am on the same page. Keep it up.....Maybe, just maybe it will leak to somebody.....I have been a FBN (Fox Business News) viewer for a year now....and occasionly when I roll into CNBC....damn if they aren't running a bundle of commercials. I worked back in the ^b*4+ at a Miami TV station and we had a shoppers guide....30 minutes of back to back commercials. That's how I see CNBC and you don't think they'll get their asses kicked when FOX is available everywhere?

On the subject of Gasparino and Kneale....Charles is a snoop reporter...that's what the golden asses at the Englewood Cliffs location want.
He is reporting what he hears and can attempt to verify. Kneale doesn't know anything about what he speaks. I do feel very strongly that CNBC is on the road to self-destruct. TC

@21 - just write to squawk@cnbc.com or whatever show is on at the time and b1tch. I sent a message about that blowhard haines and the guy hasn't made the comment since.
he had a habit of saying that the companies were beating "easy" comps, thus, the market shouldn't react with such vigor (if the stocks ran up). I sent a note reminding him that the market is a discounting mechanism. thus, comparisons to prior quarters are only part of the equation - it's more about the future outlook that spooks/excites investors...

Charlie's a mean drunk
sometimes he's just a mean drug addict

@2/22 10 to 1 you are employed by the Gas bag's PR firm. There is no bigger loser on the air. His defense of Ken Lewis was a complete f##king embarrassment.
I say fire Gasparino immediately and hire an IB who actually understands the markets.
Gasparino sucks.

Ay-men, #21. I'm with you. I"m all FBN all the time now. The info is there and the chicks are way hotter. Blonde babe Sandra Smith and Red Fox Liz Claman are so 12-alarm hot I'll take my news any day. But seriously, folks, I'm actually liking the information without the bickering and p.s. some pals at Morgan STanley telling me they switched t.v.s over to FBN on the investment banking floor.

I dislike Dennis, he makes me turn off CNBC. He argues pointlessly just to argue (maybe bring attention to himself). Ever since he came on the channel I dislike watching it.
Posted by guest , Feb 12, 2009 3:57PM
fire that blo-hard gasparino. he knows zilch and constanty berates and generally abuses guests and his co-workers.
he brags about his boxing apsirations like half of all the men in the states haven't at least tried boxing.
but his refusal to let people on air with him talk, is the worst. at cnbc he should be the first to go, with dennis kneale close behind him.
