    What’s going on with CNBC ratings? Where have all the viewers gone?

    it is most likely Amanda Drury will eventually take Erin Burnett’s one program, either in A.M or P.M.
    Ratings of Erin shows continue to decline as what have been reported.

    ?????? Is it true that through GE, NBCU sold bonds underwritten by Goldman Sachs last Monday????

    Would that be the reason why CNBC talking heads are pumping defensive comments of GS? Hmm..

    The other day CNBC had this Poll with result in favor of GS, that it didn’t do fraud something to that effect.We, at work were laughing and asking each other about the credibility of the Poll.During Erin’s afternoon show, she asked Austan Goolsbee with the Poll’s result.He replied, first by saying the Poll was interesting then he went on to ask what % of CNBC’s viewer were GS employees.Meaning, GS employees must have influenced the result so with the traders.He wasn’t convinced it was “street poll” at all.It was rigged.

    Credibility wise, CNBC lost it.

    The reported bonds sale by NBCU was rumored to be around $233 million.

    It’s legal but why no news about it?

    Oh, it was underwritten by Goldman Sachs, a bank Erin Burnett and JIm Cramer,love to defend inspite of fraud charges.
