[quote=qwerty007]Well, this sort of thing happens. The oddest things is when the reporter says we’ll be back when something really “substandard” is happening. I don’t think he meant to say “substantial”, because he would have corrected himself. He must have been referring to the declining situation in the current crisis. Unfortunate choice of words. Very amusing.[/quote]
Again, I watched the video and didn’t rely on someone else’s interpetation or bad transcript. It wasn’t that hard to make out: he actually said “substantive”.
From a news perspective, the fact that Ron Paul was (correctly) ranting yet again about the Fed isn’t exactly the scoop of the century, so I don’t blame the CNBC guy for the “substantive” comment.
Moral of the story: go to the source and make up your own mind.
