Daily Show Squirm
Click here to see Jon Stewart cross examine Jim Cramer. I don’t see where Stewart gets off pistol whipping Cramer for the way he runs his show. It’s not like there aren’t other market shows among my 500 cable channels. Bloomberg, even Lou Dobbs, come to mind. Push the button! In any event, Cramer took it like a wimp. Maybe he’s not getting enough sleep. He was baking cookies with Martha Stewart before he went on the Daily Show. When does he do his research? Maybe he’s really some little Tammy Wynett. I think I’ll change the channel.
