Jim Cramer gets Pounded by John Stewart on the Daily Show

[Chris Scoreboard Johnston]

Ironically the times I have watched Kramer I thought he was funnier than that little punk Stewart anyway. I do recall him telling people that if they did not need their money in the next 3 years to get out of the stock market, and that was at significantly higher levels than where we are now, so not every one of them was wrong. Another example of how nobody takes responsibility for their own lives, everything is somebody else’s fault.

Even you liberals know the only reason he went after him at all is that he criticized Barry ( Obama ). He is a lifelong democrat but he went against the cause when he spoke his mind and now look what happened. They are trying to suppress dissent as much as they can, we will see more and more of this as we move along.

What a stupid post.

This financial crisis is causing big-time problems, enormous pressure on the real-world economy, people who produce things for a living. The 24-hour financial news clowns pumped the RE-bubble and financial-fraud the whole way, not a shred of journalism involved. That’s Stewart’s point. Not that Cramer is to blame, but that CNBC and their ilk amplified the outcome through their bullshit financial ‘entertainment’ news.

‘Liberal conspiracy’? What a grasping, fruitwad, loose-screw thing to say. These ranting right-wing types have no connection to reality anymore. This mess is bigger than political party but the Republicans were at the epicenter, and every bit a part of the problem. Not sure how this is some big-bad lefty liberal thing. Just stupid comments.

Very entertaining! akx114, svelte, and davelj …spot on!

This is not comedy. It’s called satire and it’s full of irony, but you only understand that if you’ve been round the block a couple of times I guess.

“…it really is a shame that it takes a comedy show to call these guys out.” Yeah, but that’s what these guys do. It’s their job and they’re a vital cog in the chain.

“I’m losing faith in the citizens of my country.” Well, that’s probably because the snake oil industry is being dragged, kicking and screaming into the 21st century.

“Would you not agree that when one manages other’s assets that they have a fiduciary responsibility to behave ethically, morally and legally?” This is the point really. Yes, in an ideal world, but corporations only pays lip service to the “duty” because it creates a conflict of interest. As long as they are seen to be doing the right thing, that covers their asses.

“If you think this is corruption, you might want to look at some of the things that goes on in other countries.” We’re not looking at other countries, we’re looking at what goes on in the US. For all it’s trumpeting, don’t you think it should be setting an example.

“…it’s about Cramer because Stewart wants ratings.” So what! If it took an elephant to sit on you to acknowledge there’s cancer …I’d watch it.

“Stewart got him on the show to humiliate him, and he did it.” I very much doubt Cramer was unaware that he was going to be the mark.

I think a lot of people are missing the point here. Stewart’s main premise…the main point he was trying to make until Cramer made it all about him was that we should expect more of our journalistic resources. If CNBC is going to tout themselves as the defacto standard for financial news then maybe they should spend a little time asking the tough questions. Don’t just ask the CEO’s “Is everything alright.”. Open the 10k’s, open the annual reports, READ THE FOOTNOTES (because that’s where all the REAL information is) and really push the people they interview.

CNBC does not do that. They are fluff programming with fluff information. They bring on a really smart contrarian to debate one of the typical industry shills and they give the two of them a minute 30 seconds to discuss. That’s what Stewart is trying to get at and I think he did an excellent job. CNBC is utter crap and he exposed them for what they are, Financial Farce wrapped in whipped cream.
