Crucified.

you think reporting will get any better?
-
love it
-
OMG... He's finished. He won't recover... Just like Tucker Carlson never recovered and this is the best p'wning since that.

what happened to him? he used to have a show than he vanished off the earth?

He was on Crossfire and shortly after Jon Stewart destroyed him and crossfire the show was cancelled. He came back with his own show but never really recovered from the Stewart owning and that too fell apart. If you go to search Jon Stewart, one of the top suggestions is still Jon Stewart Crossfire or Jon Stewart Tucker Carlson and that happened like 5 years ago.

Wow. I like Cramer but even I will admit that was brutal. Stewart had one of his finest moments there.
-
brutal
-
-
That Cramer interview was so BRUTAL even I am feeling sorry for him now...damn
-
The interview with Tucker was dumb and Stewart came across as incredibly simple minded in that.
-
Feel sorry for him? hahahahahahahahaah
Cramer is a douchbag. It's one thing to make bad calls, it's another to turn around and try to hide them like he does on his show all the time. He's no differnet then all the other TV scum that are trying to sucker in new investers and pump these false rallies in the market.
Booyah bitch!

John Stewart is my new hero! That was just brutal, hopefully I will get to watch the owning of Tucker Carlson later.
-
I'll give Cramer credit for having the balls to go on the show knowing he was probably going to get his ass kicked.

No shit. That was pretty hardcore.

savage owning... ;D

the vid has been taken down.
"copyright of viacom"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA
-
hmm I bet if Comedy Central wasn't owned by Viacom, none of this would have happened.
One thing I hope, is that the scrutiny doesn't end.
Cramer is only the fall guy. It's not as if the MSM is cleansed of it's "sins" now.

are you saying viacom is trying to bring down nbc
-
lol what? It would come across different with the rest of the background leading up to that. I didn't see it that way and obviously most others didn't either. It ended that moron Tucker while Stewart went on like nothing ever happened. Who got owned then?
I agree. not sure what 338338 is smoking.Jon stewart is a credit to his profession.and he does more hard hitting interviews than most others even though It's a comedy show.
-

I'll chalk it up to being retarded.
-

possibly
or a ratings grab between the two.
-
W-O-W.
This wouldn't be sad if John Stewart weren't a comedian and he weren't asking a major fuckup all the tough questions everyone in mass media should be asking.
That is a BAAAAAD sing.
We're in deep shit.
-
You're missing a huge key factor. For Jon Stewart, it's his MO to go after portions of the media that fail the public. He's done it for years and years. It's a basic premise of the show from the start. Mockery of the media and outright highlight of their most epic failures. I'm glad Jon does what he does. Aside from the rise of people getting their news from alternative sources, the only public payback for our shitty media has been the daily p'wnage handed out by The Daily Show.
I know, wasn't jumping to any conclusions.

everywhere i look the fuckin 'video has been removed' i want to see this dammit!!!

And the Comedy channel ain't running it either.
I do not know what happened...

here it is:

The video of Cramer trying to launch a defense against Jon the first time was even funnier. The man is a sick joke.

hopefully it is one of MANY ownings that NEED to happen, these people have to be held accountable for what has transpired.

That will never happen in a million years.
Madoff will be made the scapegoat and the whole fiasco will go unnoticed. Major TV stations refuse to do any investigative reporting of the issue, I mean, how loud do they have to say it? The game is rigged. The politicians will pass laws to help the middle class recoup part of their losses via tax breaks and then gradually tighten up the rope by de-fiscalizing pension plans even more.
We're all fucking tools and these people know it.

"Hopefully" what Brent?
Are we that blind to the obvious? Have you seen any programs in ABC, NBC, CBS or CNN on the shenanigans that go on behind the scenes. Have you seen any serious investigative research on the current recession? I mean, the most you will see is someone blaming politician x for something he voted for 5 years ago, when the market was totally different and White House advisors and the people at the FED were advising to feed the monster.
Let's be realistic here, what needs to happen is a massive movement of money from the stock markets to actual physical products and companies, meaning not financing someone else's dream, financing your own dream. Many people in this country are irreversibly stupid and will quickly forget about what happened 10 years ago as soon as they make 100 bucks on a company that makes dildos that do your taxes and fix your clutch (meaning shit with 0 real value) at the same time.
Thus I have 0 hope, in the media, in our government, in the company I work for and in many Americans.

I still find it insane that no brokers have been prosecuted for fraud in all of this mess.
-
Remember the dotcom bust? That was all set up. There was a need to create the world wide net and no government was willing to fork up the funds for it. The market makers were tapped and the media became sort of one big finance channel. People's retirement funds were funneled into this market, financing every possible STUPID business idea you can think of, being cheerleaded along all the way as usual, and when time came the tab was passed along to the public, not the private enterprises. Who paid? The 401(k) plans.
No one, not even the government, released serious doubts about that much retirement money being funneled to such a small segment of the market. No one said shit. The Ron Insanas the Maria Bartiromos, no one. Eventually people's perception and realism caught up with the hype and the usual sorry-you-lose-now-I-play-stupid pattern from those in the know emerged. You can see it now everywhere you turn to: Bernanke, Cramer, etc. Now they ALL play stupid.
Do you think we'll learn? I don't think so.

Well, that is because of one thing: The SEC is in on it.
I don't give a hoot about anything anyone says, but every SEC rep is bough out like little bitches that they are.
When confronted they play stupid and there isn't anything you can do. The SEC won't do anything about it because they do not want anyone to think there is rampant corruption going on... but it is obvious there is corruption in the SEC.

To me, it seems even worse than that. The SEC gave madoff cover for what he did. He simply could claim that he was investigated by the SEC and they found nothing, so everything was legit.
We would be better off without an SEC as it presently is.

Look, everyone is in on it. The media's in on it now. I mean, they played an INTRICATE part in this. Now they're playing stupid as usual, much like when they failed to investigate any of Bush's allegations on why we needed to go into Iraq, but they are GUILTY fucks. I want someone lynched.
Listen to this guy, a conservative financial planner, from 2:03 to 3:06, on how he got burned by Madoff and the duplicity involved in the crime. Look at how quickly Couric turns the questioning to someone else:
I mean, when confronted with such a serious ALEGATION (that the government was in on it,) any SERIOUS reporter would follow it up with a "please explain," but our bullshit media, as usual, gives it little time because the guy said something that was not supposed to be said in the mainstream media. THAT is one of the problems.

333386 I decided to isolate the above text because I wanted to answer it clearly. I work in the financial services industry and deal with many of these people on a daily basis... Getting rid of the SEC is DEFINITELY something we do not UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES want to do. The financial services industry REQUIRES arbitration because there is lots of money involved and money makes people make stupid decisions.

I said as it prsently is. Of course we need srtrict oversight etc, but it seems like the people doing the investigating are clueless at best, other things at worst.

the unedited version is pretty fair and dare I say balanced
my favorite part of either version is where cramer is shown a video where he's talking about a market gaming technique and bragging that he's not saying this on tv and he squeeks "It's on TV Now!"

you should try to be more optimistic. ;D

The only way I'd be optimistic is if someone were getting prosecuted right the fuck right now. It ain't happening, which suggest one thing to me: THE GAME IS RIGGED. Game over.
AIG just announced it would be giving out bonuses.
Am I supposed to feel optimistic about that?

it doenst do anyone including yourself to get all riled up over things that are out of your control, just try to see the lighter side of things... this will help ;D

Oh, but I do, not with a dose of optimism, which is what you recommended, but with a healthy dose of REALISM, which is what I am trying to express (to a point) through my comments.
In essence, I chop my own wood.
By the way, I love your avatar.

lol. well we can agree on something

good stuff. cramer is a monkey, he had it coming. Im glad stewart has the balls to call this stuff out. Classic.

Someone please tell Stewart that he needs to get off comedy central before anyone will take him seriously. He is just another comedian that has no busniess talking about the economy or politics because he is so warped in his left wing lunacy. I wouldn't let him paint my house!
