Prime Time Thread

Ya gotta love a good protest.

Thanks fe. That was great. I needed to be cheered because the DOW dropped 8000 points today and President Obama completely ruined American business.Sorry….I was listening to Hannity today.

Holy shit, I haven’t had time to read my email or today’s Bobs or even all of last night’s PTT/radio after I went to bed and here we are again. I’m not used to being gone all day–uh, guess that’s pretty obvious.

I give up. Somebody give me a rundown. You can even make up what’s in the email.

DP- Rundown coming. First I have to reread. I was “under the influence” last night.

Thanks, Jane. Dogs are pissed because they missed mama all day. Must give love. Lucy even swatted the pad I have my laptop on, trying to knock it off my legs–sweet little bitch.

Concensus: Fleischer’s a raging Bush-cock-sucking asshole. We expect Rod Serling to pop out any moment now. Wait, you were there for all that. Seymour Hirsch is prescient or insane. Levi baby daddy and Bristol baby mama split. I am Cliff Clavin. One’s opinion of Meghan McCain seems to vary directly with one’s opinion of boobies on blondes. (Everyone still loves Rachel.) Kyle has animated Mann Coulter. Joe and Mike H called in to the show last night. Red brothers are indeed Yankees. Lee and Gypsy had a spat. Canada is useless. Elvis did some expectation management. Kyle produced bad radio before. QT is easy.So, you know, not much happened.Let me know if I missed something.

Nope, I think that covers it.

*really bad radioJust a small correction, jane.

sorry, Kyle, I confess I didn’t follow your link. I’ll take your word.

I educated people about package stores….

Kyle has animated Mann Coulter.

We only know them as alphabet stores, Chris, as I’m sure you’ve heard way too much. We leave the state and we don’t know where to turn for liquor. So you have highly agitated Carolinians wandering the planet looking dazedly for their ABC sign.

ABC Package Store — BOOYAH

Would anyone other than Republicans actually vote for Newt if he were to run?

Early word is Jon Stewart hammered Cramer tonight: http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D96SPKFO2&show_article=1Can't wait for the Daily Show!

WTF?!

Damn, Daily Show is messing with Mr. Dingeldein’s radio time. Damn cable people! I’d have DVR if they’d come when they said they would. Bastards!

I think I’m more excited about tonight’s Daily Show than watching the American Idol results. NO SPOILERS! I haven’t watched it yet.

American what, Carlos?

…May not be able to if my car up and dies like the strange red fluid leaking from it is telling me it might be doing.

DP: Red stuff is probably transmission fluid. If all the tranny fluid runs out, the car won’t go. If it’s going when the last of it runs out, it’ll make funny noises, then stop. Have someone check it.

Elvis is on at 11pm? What the fuck? Wasn’t it originally scheduled for 10? GODAMMIT!

DP- LOL! I knew that would get someone’s attention. It’s a guilty pleasure… I watch with my wife on my off nights.

Thanks, Alan. I suspect transmission because it looks red to me. Son says it’s not red but nothing is missing any fluid. I just got it serviced (fluid and lube kind) a week or so ago. Could they have overfilled tx fluid? Or something? There is a bit in my carport every time I park–about a 50 cent piece splat–that looks gradual.Same transmission blew up or something about 5 years ago at the bottom of a very long mountain. It was under warranty then–one year for a used Saturn from the dealer. Now…not.*askeered–only car we have now*

Carl, I could have lived a long life not knowing that dirty little secret of yours.

Fuck me. 10 CENTRAL. What the fuck, Elvis. You have to cater to your audience, most of which reside on the east coast, douche!

And I think Elvis is 10 Central.

DP – Don’t hate the player, hate the game. (I seem to be channeling Michael Steele.)

Yeah, BITCHES.

>>No way QT’s easy.I know! It sounds so dirty the way Jane says it!looks innocentI’m a victim of circumstance, I tell ya! Circumstance!QT

So am I allowed to listen to teh Elvis show even though I never got an invitation?

Fuck me. 10 CENTRAL. What the fuck, Elvis. You have to cater to your audience, most of which reside on the east coast, douche!

Yes, I know that, fucktard, but Blog Talk Radio only gives you a handful of choices in “prime time” and everything from 7:00 to 10:00 CST was booked solid and unavailable. 10:00 CST was the earliest I could schedule it unless I wanted it early in the morning or during Drive Time. And not many people have the interwebs in their cars, douche.

Never said I hated anything about you, dear Carlos. I just find that particular tv obsession strange. But I have my strange obsessions. They just don’t include…ew. That one.

A Carl v. Elvis smackdown. Hot!! Don’t rip any shirts off until I get the beer.

Yeah, hey Elvis. If you are going to make something RSVP on the Book of the Face, shouldn’t it include actual invitations to those expected to RSVP? Skiba has her nose bent out of joint on this stuff and I see her point. Nothing ingraved or snail mailed. Just a “Hey, douchebag, listen to this show” kind of thingie in our inboxes.

Elvis – Awesome response, cocksucker. Actually, with the late start I may be able to get home in time to call in.

I’m gonna be so lit by 11 p.m. I’ll try not to embarrass anyone (no promises to myself).

Kyle, you beat me to the ABC stores…you little bitch, you.

What’s Skiba’s name on The Facebooks? I sent an invite to my entire The Friends List.

Speaking of going to Carolina to satisfy my vices, I just paid $4.59 for a pack of cigarettes.And SC prices are about to up too, I believe.TIME TO QUIT.

Skiba? Care to divulge this or should I go over there and message him?

SOME SPAZZY BLACK GUYS:1. Franklin Raines: douchebag CEO who was the captian of the Fannie Mae mortgage scam. Raines bailed out with 100 million.2.Richard Parsons: Chairman of CitiBank. Yes THAT bank that is suffocating our country. This brutha rakes in 75 million and he has himself a white woman to boot!3.Vikram Pandit: okay not a brutha but a man of color. Douchebag CEO of Citgroup.4.Kenneth I. Chenault, CEO of American ExpressSo my friends, spazziness knows no color boundaries.

I pathetically looked through everyone who was invited and saw myself nowhere in there. So hurtful.(I’m not seriously mad, just kidding around.)

I prefer the term spasticity to spazziness, but to each his or her own.

I don’t smoke anymore (dammit), but I saw a poster today at the gas station which said cigarette prices will be going up $0.62 in April. That will put even cheap cigarettes over $4 in NC – which is high for the Tar Heel state.

Hint -Beatles song.Basketball.

I don’t actually recall getting one, Skiba, but I saw the announcement on Morning Joe. And all over FB and here. And Twitter. Heh, Elvis, you’ve had more exposure than the Stinky Cheese guy.

DKos diary of someone who was at the Daily Show/Cramer taping.

Woah, it was announced on Morning Joe, DP?

Kyle – count your blessings. I don’t smoke but a pack of cigarettes in NYC is $9.00!

Oooh, Skiba. That’s good.

Maybe it wasn’t actually on Morning Joe. I’ve been known to exaggerate. And watch too much tv.

My little cigars jumped from 2.30 or so for a pack of 5 (that lasted a few days to a week when I was ON) to over $4 in just the last month or two. I haven’t had one in 2 days. Dammit.

What’s Skiba’s name on The Facebooks? I sent an invite to my entire The Friends List.Posted by: Elvis the Dingeldein™ at March 12, 2009 8:36 PM

Now I’m going to cry. I apparently am not a friend. I invited myself all by myself, when I saw someone else had rsvp’d. Maybe I should stay away.poutsQT

QT, I just looked and it appears that I barged my own way into RSVP too. There must have been a problem with the outgoing invitations because I never got one either. I think Morning Joe intercepted it.

50 fucking pages, people!50 fucking pages!Jesus the Christ and his brother George, I need to stop before I use up all the internet. WIKI loves me.

OH WHAT THE FUCK!?!?! You people don’t need fucking invitations, just click the goddamned link up there at the top of this thread at The Ten PMs Central, 11 PMs Eastern, and listen to the fucking thing! Jesus Hussein The Christ!The Facebooks is teh suck for social invitationizing. Deal with it.

Joe, step back toward the Ritalin.

or lithium. Or valium.

Heh, we got to him.

Ha, I’m dumb! I thought everyone here got invitations except me and was all hurt.

Skiba, I assumed I had gotten one because I did the RSVP thing. I’m such a basket case I imagined it. FB ate it. No, my pet theory still stands. Joe got them.

(not our Joe)

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{ Elvis }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}Screw facebook!QT

mini-rant: I’m tired of hearing and reading that “a lot of liberals get their news solely from Stewart and Colbert.” I contend that this is not true–many of the jokes require a better-than-average knowledge of current events, and the audience reacts as if they possess that knowledge….and I hate facebook.

If people DID get their news solely from Colbert and Stewart, they would STILL be far better informed than the average FOX News viewer.

OK, beer is flowing through the system and coffee is being flushed out. Ritalin and lithium would be nice right about now.For the first time in my life, I am actually working ahead on a project instead of the weekend before it is due.Immediately after my graduation in May, I am going to start working a novel about my life/politics/ARMY/War/relationships/Christianity/depression/Xenu.

What is jane up to? She’s being awfully quiet.I agree, Kyle. And I get the feeling people who say that have never actually watched the shows.

The only time my son opens his ears (even while playing Diablo 24 hours a day) for news is during Stewart, Colbert or Rachel. And sometimes Olbermann but he tries not to show that he was listening.

I’m sorry, I’m terrible with keeping track of this stuff – when will the radio show be on on the West Coast?

I got one.just sayin’

Scary when Jane disappears.(and my son is not politically organized enough yet to be a liberal but I’m still working on it subliminally)

If it backs up an hour for each zone, fe (which tv never does and why it’s so confusing–”except on the west coast” and such), I’d guess you would hear it at eight?

Fe – I’m no Geographer but I believe 10:00 The Central Times is 8:00 Pacificness. If I’ve got my First Grade Subtractions working properly.

Elvis: So I’ll cross geographer off my list of your possible careers. Although it’s still possible that you’re a cartographer working for social equality.

For everyone who might be concerned about what time the Dingeldein Show starts:http://www.timetemperature.com/tzus/time_zone.shtml

One of my favorite episodes ever, Fe. EVER!What does cartography have to do with social equality? Genius.The Peters Projection!

Rachel Maddow is made of the brilliant.

Evan Bayh is fucking worthless. Rachel just called him on his bullshit.

I thought Elvis’ link was going to be related to why I had such trouble approaching the chalkboard in class when I was 12.

Kyle, did my remark offend you in any way, shape or form? Did I come across as me being “hateful”?

South Park is ridiculous! I never watch it but my brother opened that can of worms.

I meant, did “it” come across as me being “hateful”?

Of course not, Ady. I think we established that on some levels, calling one a “bitch” is a way of saying “I love you.”GI, South Park is one of the only shows I know of that has gotten (imo) funnier each season. And the turnaround time the post-election episode simply must be respected.

This episode is about the Jonas Brothers and Jesus. Must watch!

…I just got it serviced (fluid and lube kind) a week or so ago. Could they have overfilled tx fluid? Or something? There is a bit in my carport every time I park–about a 50 cent piece splat–that looks gradual. …

That’s a pretty slow drip. It could just be spillage from your recent servicing (if they slopped some around, and it’s dripping off of outside parts). If it stops leaking within a week or two, and doesn’t leak worse than this, I wouldn’t worry about it. But do have your son check the fluid levels periodically, just in case.By the way, when was the last time you saw a real 50 cent piece being used to buy anything?

Kyle, that’s what I thought too. Oh, btw my little boy is down there with his father about 20 minutes from you, just sayin’ for some reason.

WHAT UP BITCHES?!?!?! i’m sauced….let’s do this!

Ah, to be sauced again. I’m on the wagon.Ady, it’s relevant enough for me! My roommate bought one of those subs from Domino’s, and that thing looked greasier than Rush Limbaugh. Just sayin’ for some reason.

Wow.. allegations that the executive branch of our government ordered the CIA to function domestically and ran an assassination ring out of the vice president’s office… anyone else miss the days when we could immediately write off anyone making such allegations as batshit insane?

kyle are you on facebook? how can you hate if you are not on it?where’s babay jane, kat, gi, brother, fe, i need my hommies! “someone” got my all kinds of liquored up and i’m ready to playi!

Thank you, Alan. It’s the theory I’ve had to go with because I can’t afford another theory. If it gets worse, doesn’t go away or suddenly stops moving I’ll have to rethink it. I appreciate your input and now need your Paypal address for sending you my modest collection of half-dollars. Wish I hadn’t wanted a new stereo at age 21, I’d have my spiffy childhood collection of silver Walking Liberty ones. They might even have paid for any possible repairs needed–knocking on wood like a maniac.

“christians are retarded” did mickey mouse just say that?! HAHAHAHAHA

take it back to the service station and have them check it out BEFORE it gets worse. sounds like they might not have something right if it’s dripping.

Fanboy, I’ve never been able to write off such allegations immediately.

gyps, I am on facebook but I don’t like it. I got reasons. They’re good, too.

Who thinks Michael Steele won’t be sacrificed to the movement conservatism gods by this time next week?

Fanboy, I’ve sounded like one of those batshit crazies for about 7 years, pretty much figuring what Hersh is saying in one way or another. I’m not at all surprised. Disturbed, yes.

gyps, I am on facebook but I don’t like it. I got reasons. They’re good, too.I hope so! I tried to friend your FB-hating self and haven’t heard anything. *sniff*

I’ve thought about that too, Chris. Just haven’t made it in that direction. I’m almost afraid to jinx it by driving there. I’ll try to hold off and watch it till Monday when everyfuckingbody isn’t there.

Adding: I don’t need to drive it before then.

For people that have never read the facebook privacy policy policy, the entire thing boils down to the following when you translate the legalese into normal English:

facebook reserves the right to do anything we fucking please with your personal information and if you don’t like this you may go fuck yourself.

facebook is run be a bunch of rabid weasels that will sell your data to whomever they pleasein order to enrich themselves. Their foolish beacon deal with Blockbuster was quickly trashed when they were informed that what they were doing violated federal law.I’m not a fan of those bozos which I guess is obvious from this comment.I visited facebook once to read the privacy policy and have never gone back. Same for MySpace. Beware of .com entrepreneurs offering free services. Nothing is ever free.If they are going to make money off of my data, then they have to give me a cut.

Kat, I logged in and I have one friend: Bob. I don’t see any requests anywhere, or invites, or befriendings (?)

sillygit…if they want pics of me peeing on a toilet they can fucking have it! who puts serious shit on there?!kyle, i’ll be your friendnizzle on the book of face.

Kyle, I just requested to friend you.Silly: What you have said should be stamped on all our foreheads: NO FREE LUNCH. Which is why I am on with a fictitious name and have “friended” virtually noone I know in real life. Nor do I accept or sign up for applications. (Marketing tools only, people.) If your friends can’t be entertaining all on their own, fuck ‘em. And who needs a real name for that?

jane, does that mean you’ll unfriend us all if we meet in person?

goddamn Fat One + remote control = DISASTER again.Bless his heart.

My real name is common enough, and I also won’t befriend any personal friends, only online friends. I can keep up with most of my other friends already, see enough of the bastards every day that I don’t need to FB with them.I still don’t see any requests. I’ve checked my inbox and under notifications, they’re empty. Is there someplace else I should be looking?

i “heart” the fat one! and that one! and it! who the hell is kyle on the facey?

It says I’ve already friended you, Kyle. That’s okay. *sniff* I understand. *wahhhhh*

“You have one friend.”And this is another reason to hate FB.

fe, I am getting rid of the Chinchillas!If you want them I will give them to you but you will have to come up with the coin for the plane tickets. UPS won’t let me mail them.

UPS won’t ship drugs either, but I don’t think that’s really ever stopped anyone. Just sayin!

Drugs don’t move or eat through boxes. Yet.

I hate to miss Elvis’s show, I hope I can download it later.I have to watch Cramer on Daily Show. I can’t not watch a train wreck.

TWO MINUTES, BITCHES!!!

elvis, I will call at 2327 EST so hang on. Brother is calling too.

Git!!! Stewart will be back on in like 2 hours, they re-run it non-stop until the next day’s show!! DON’T MISS THE DRUNKEN SOLILOQUY, YOU FUCK!!!

GI, if I got a chinchilla, my dogs and cats would eat it. They’re cuties, though.

kyle i cna’t find you! someone tell me how! jesus i’m not that drunk!elvis! we’re ready for you big daddy…

gyps, I’m on the last page of Bob’s friends. Pretty sure I’m the only Kyle on that page. It may do no good though, because FB keeps reminding me I’m a one-friend-having loser.

Elvis has very nice voice. And talks so dirty!

awwwww dingleberry equals the sexy!

I can’t figure out how to play it.

Yes, DP, QT is officially melting. Elvis brings the sexy.And, also, he’s hysterically funny. And vulger.QT

fe, click the heading on the “EPISODE ON AIR” block.

QT, you’re a 2-blogger melter?

It’s been said before: QT is easy.

elvis is hot!

He’s killing me. He’s so Elvis.

Oh no, I’ve been mentally misprouncing “Dingeldein” all this time! Dangle-deen. Dangle — okay, yep, got that. And *not* like the “ein’s” in Einstein, shaaa.

why does vulgarity turn me on so?!

I want Jon Stewart to get Limbaugh on his show.

DP, in my defense, I faint over Bob. I’m melting over Elvis. There’s a difference.QT

I think we all have been, dy.

Yup, my head pronounced it wrong all this time too. hanging my head

Gee, I can’t imagine why any of those billboard submissions weren’t used.

i always say dingleberry! if he doesn’t like he can suck my balls!

Wow, Elvis talks like he writes!

I’m still hung up on the Basket Of Puppies Agenda advanced by Space, or Myst, I forget which…see today’s threads

And people that thnk they’re white, like Malkin.

holy shit, Jon Stewart.

KILL WHITEY! hehe…

“kill whitey” shout out murders another thread! hahaha…

MULVA?!?! I thought he was going to say Art Vandalay.

MERKIN!!!Sorry….the Mulva thing brought it on.

you calling in Carlos?

merkin merkin merkin, btw

$54,000 a day. Mulva me!Guillotines first, then eat ‘em.

Brother!

It’s Redmond!!!

BROTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sand in vagina. Merkin merkin.

Heh.

BOOBS (.)(.)Signal is out.

The brothers give hotttt voice….

Beck is fucking nuts. He’s on billboards in Ohio. Makes my skin crawl.

And other brother.

Yay I made FB work.Elvis, I sat the show out so I can listen while I work tomorrow–assuming it will be available, of course.

Who’s gonna do the Dangel-deen Jingle?

…church “basement”… Heh.

DP – I’m already thinking of some jingle shit.

Sweet, Carl. I have no musical talents whatsoever.

We have a taker! Go, Carl.Jane? Is that you hiding?

I am a radio whore!I feel used.But I liked it!

BC -I was thinking of jingle balls.

Dudes. This will be all the internets are talking about tomorrow and I’m sure it will be on Youtube or at ComedyCentral, but HOLY FUCKING SHIT the Jon Stewart/Jim Cramer interview was the most raw and honest, no-shit thing I’ve seen on TV possibly ever.”Speaking truth to power” has become,as a phrase, a cliche thing thrown about by loons and half-baked conspiracy theorists such that it has devalued the words. But I don’t know how better to describe what I just saw.It was like looking at the Emperor and pointing out that he was naked and you could totally see his cockandballs, all while he assured you, with decreasing confidence, that he’s fully dressed..ok, not fully but he does have SOME clothes on. OK, no clothes, but he’s tried to keep his man-bush trimmed.

Joe, some of us here enjoyed it too much so you should feel used.

Or maybe that should be dangle balls.

I heard all black men have junk like a fire hose.And you like being used, Joe. Admit it.

kat i’ve already told you that isn’t true!

Is this the Eddie Murphy urban legend?

I thought he said “fire hydrant”.

josh, we’ll all have to get back to you after we watch hte Daily show. Later. Cause we’ve been glued to the blogotubes radio show (see above).

COOTIES IN THE RUG heh

Possibly, DP. I probably blocked that out, it was so terrifying.

Yes. Today, Elvis. Tomorrow, the other current event.Thanks for your take on it, Josh. I feel like I’m in a multiplex full of all-thumbs-ups.

donkeypunch in the uterus!

Yeah, Kat. Quite terrifying, those tall black men in elevators with imagined fire hydrants bearing flowers.

Goddamn, Elvis. This story has been around for over 15 years. Jeez, the Repubes have really run out of jokes, haven’t they.

I’ve been mispronouncing Dingledein, too?What’s funny is I said the correct pronunciation out loud to myself, and that’s the only time I’ve ever said it out loud.

>>joshd saidI’m sure it will be on Youtube or at ComedyCentral, but HOLY FUCKING SHIT the Jon Stewart/Jim Cramer interview was the most raw and honest, no-shit thing I’ve seen on TV possibly ever.vera says, Hell Yes!!! It was spectacular

Yes, DP. Cocks the size of fire hydrants? Absolutely terrifying.

Ok, who was the mystery caller who did a hang-up? Carlos?

“Awwww, they were docile, extremely happy and wealthy negroes…”Classic.Ten years ago I read that Michael Jordan is the most recognizable figure in the world, so I understand why she didn’t recognize him.

Yeah, I was listening on my phone and I am pretty sure I just hung up like a stalker.Totally forgot I was a caller.

No, not me. I wouldn’t have hung up on Mr. The Elvis.

SORRY!!!!

Now I wanna hear Carl’s voice! whining and stamping foot

Kat! Is your shirt off?

KAT!

KAT IS A FUCKING SEX KITTEN!!!!!!

I’ll call next week, DP.

I WILL HAVE KAT’S BABIES NOW

KAT! Hot voice, I’m calling it.

Of course it was, Carl! I promised, didn’t I?

Well – that was a great show, Elvis! Very funny.QT

Petty awesome inaugural show, Mr. The Dingeldein! I’ll try to work on some Jingeldeins for ya.

Elvis just wtfpwned Bob and Lee…

I’ll hold you to it, Carlos. Somehow.

And Elvis is probably all pissed at me ending his very serious segment with a question about his fucking name.

Kat,You have a sexy voice.

Elvis just wtfpwned Bob and Lee…

LOL! And by himself too. Helps when you stick to a format and can do a show somewhere other than your car.

I FUCKING MISSED KAT!I FUCKING MISSED CRAMER!You assholes owe me!

Great stuff. Thanks, Elvis.(Yes, Kat, your voice is hot too).

You didn’t hear me, Joe???? WTF???And thanks guys. Apparently I can get some late night work if I need some extra bucks.

Mike, even I agree and I thought Rachel’s debut was “intelligent”.

Watch out Kat. There is going to be a $10 tax on late night activities.I am going to listen now.

GI – you can listen to the podcast, they’re usually available within 12 hours if not earlier.Daily Show repeats at 1:30am I think.

Kat,Speaking from experience (cough) yes you can.

I liked the drinking and adult language. It was a really good show.

Woo-Hoo! Ellllll-vis! *sigh*That was great! I’m kinda pissed you only said “apparatus” once, but other than that I’m sprung.Scooping out Rush for a houseboat was the SIC! Oh and I ache from the “Black Robbers” email.You’re wrong for saying Mike Steele looks like Humpty from Digital Underground. It was a nice hometown hip hop shout out though. Too bad he doesn’t look more like MC Hammer. Hammers suckage equals Steele’s.Congrats on a great show.Kat=sexy siren voice.

Can I just take a second to pop in and complain that while the Daily Show is on at 11 pm EST, which should be b 9 PM here in teh Mountainous zone. And yet, it’s not on til EFFING midnight out here. Which is bullshit! Bullshit, do you hear me Comedy Central! COOOOOOOOOMMMMM!(edy central…)

Dontpanic,How does Rachel factor into this? Did you see her with M. McCain last night?

I mean I’m so straight that I didn’t go the gay-ga ga when Rachel first debuted her show. I was giving Kat a wink. Hell, I’m too straight to pull it off but it was fun anyway.

Suggested intro music clip:Public Enemy singing”ELVIS was a hero to most… ELVIS was a hero to most..”Cut it off before it goes into the next few lines, though. Haha.

Me too, scribblechic, me too, ouch. “Tall black mind-reading negroes.” Need to get a corset to keep from fucking laughing my spleen out next time.

And I did see the interview last night. She can pull a great interview out of her ass if she chooses (and that’s not meant as a slight against McCain).

Oh, lawd DP. You think Rachel might have listened and found my voice hot? I might swoon….

Kat, if the phone rings don’t let the machine get it. No matter what.

Must sleep. ‘Night, guys. Congrats, Elvis. You were a hit here.

night deepster. xoxo

‘Night DP. I’m following you!

(and Kat.) Sweet dreams goils.

And I mean follow you chronologically, DP. Not like stalker follow you.

After watching the Stewart/Cramer interview, here’s my prediction: CNBC viewership is going to tank (I have no idea what their viewership is) and they will fold.

…Or at least Mad Money will die a horrible death.

…or Carlos will kill a thread.Kidding!

Thread’s dead?Dammit.

Everybody is lurking or masturbating from sexy voices.Look at FB there are lurking over there too.

Yeah one of them is currently occupying my attention and taunting me.

We have teh Kyle now….mmmmmm (FB munches on Kyle’s brain)

Hey man, thread was dead when I got here. Everyone was saying goodbye after Elvis’ teh awesome show.

Everyone needs to watch tonight’s Daily Show! Jon COMPLETELY DESTROYS Cramer and the CNBC network!

“There is a market for Cocaine and Hookers” HA!This is fucking classic.

To bed, Joe. Don’t make me break out the whip.

CNBC have been corporatist cheerleaders for a very long time. They aided and abetted in the looting and pillaging that Wall Street Schmucks have been doing for the past decade.Jon did a great job. Cramer did better than I expected him to. I expected Cramer to be an ass but he was calm and rational and mostly owned up to his mistakes. He could have done *much* worse. I can’t guess what this will do to his ratings since I don’t understand why anyone watches him in the first place. I agree that CNBC in general is going to take a hit over this. However, I now have some respect for Cramer when I had *none* before so I think he made the right decision to appear.

I’ve always had a modicum of respect for all the players on CNBC, but lately, they’re all basically sycophant clowns to me. The Stewart v.s. Cramer interview was as devastating as some of you had said it was. To tell the truth, I’m not sure that everything we saw wasn’t discussed beforehand. I don’t know what it real and fake anymore. Stewart I’ve known since the MTV and stand-up days, so I knew where he was coming from. His observational jabs were accurate as they’ve always been. It is so-called “commentators” like Cramer that I expect better from. I don’t mean to be cryptic…I am fully aware that there’s a deliberate effort to undermine the President being conducted by the swine media. I do not care if Cramer contributed to Dem causes – I’m no Democrat. I expected better, though. He’s apart of the swine-ridden cabal playing games. I expected better from him, and the CNBC channel. I expect nothing anymore. I do not believe the hit will be devastating enough to eradicate the menace of the corporatist media playing dictator, but it may be the beginning of our intellectual revolt against these paid theatrical “news” charlatans.The show featured plenty of clever one liners, but it was not that funny what went down tonight. Never mind CNBC itself, it’s the entire elitist media structure that need to be assaulted. The swine hide behind the so-called “freedom of the press,” but there are no freedoms swine respect besides their own right to be swine. We need to make sausages out of these people, figuratively or, come heaven or hell, literally. They do not care about us little folk, so why should we care about them. Cut the bastards off.I, Lexaburn, can not do this alone, so I’m not EVEN attempting to be some sort of rabble-rouser, but something has to be done about this. This ignobility on our modern-day media’s part has run its course. It’s time we cut this shit OFF! If we don’t we deserve to be scammed. We know better, don’t we?The time is NOW!NOW!Insolent, indolent cable chit-chatter is for losers.NOW!Where the fuck are we – high school? That’s just how these idiots on TV treat us viewers. As if we all want to know what the high-tier cliques are discussing in a vapid manner. I’ve never been a fan of cliques, and our current media seems to think it belongs to one. Buncha prom kings and queens or something.Enough of this media dork bullshit!Later, gators.

Lexaburn -Very well said sir.I’m making saurkraut in anticipation of windfall sausage availability.TV News, with the exception of local news, has not been worth anything for a very long time. I stopped watching, since there seemed little else I could do.TV news did not get ratings in 50s and 60s. Early 70s they started giving ratings to News Shows and hence news became entertainment.We should have an FCC regulation that uses the average of all of a network’s shows that are rated to determine the advertising rate for a network’s news show. News shows should not get ratings. New shows are a public service which justifies there use of publicly owned RF spectrum.If this change is made, then the news shows can return to real journalism again.

Journalism in the mainstream media is dead.And this thread should be–quite impressive for a weeknightGoddammit, I need to get in bed.
