Goodbye Dennis: Kneale Going To Fox Business

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Good news: the man who coined the phrase Digital Dickweed is gone; The Better news: he will be reunited with former CNBC colleague Charlie Gasparino. The Best news: the Fed did not buy Dennis' contract on behalf of taxpayers. Which is odd - the Fed is now in the business of buying EVERYTHING.

From TV Newser:

Looks like another CNBC reporter is leaving to join Fox Business Network.

TVNewser hears that Dennis Kneale is expected to join Fox Business in an on-air role covering media and advertising.

We have calls out to Fox Business, and will update when we hear back.

Kneale’s departure is not a surprise. His on-air role at CNBC was diminished over the Summer when he was pulled off the mid-day show “Power Lunch,” and a number of outlets reported that he was likely to leave the network when his contract expired this month.

Now it appears that Kneale will be reunited with his old CNBC colleague Charlie Gasparino, the same man he had this memorable exchange with back in 2008. Gasparino left CNBC for FBN in February of this year.

Regular readers recall there is no love loss between Dennis and Zero Hedge.

Farewell Dennis. Better luck next time.

I hope Fox got him on the cheap, because I don't think he's bringing any sort of fan base with him.

Fox usually picks up the better CNBS talking heads. I would have expected Santelli to get picked up.  Kneale is a schmuck.  He will drive fans away.

No shit.  Dennis "Dickweed" Kneale should have been sent down to the minor leagues, maybe to MSNBC as a field reporter for Rachel Maddow.

Fox should have spent the money to get Santelli, he is the ONLY one worth anything at CNBS.

This is a step backward for FOX Business, a big step backward.

BTW that freeze frame picture should be added to Wikipedia's Dickweed page.

Macke and Kneale are not that far apart in the doofus department.

Kneale is a mis-directed jerk.  His ideas are severely short-sighted.

I would wager that his perma-bull tone will totally reverse, per Faux's agenda.  Suddenly, everything is wrong with the economy, the stock market is held up with Tinker toys and Scotch tape, and if Republicans aren't elected, everything will come crashing down. 

The only real question is whether or not Faux News has a wide-angle lens large enough for that absurdly large fake nose and eye-wear that he sports.  Anyone know why Kneale wears a cheap disguise kit?  The only thing missing is the excessively bushy mustache, which I'm sure he could borrow from John Stossel's collection - I've heard Stossel has a velvet-lined attache case with 30 of them.

a poll is clearly needed to determine who on cnbc's payroll is now their least valuable asset as the obvious holder of that title is no longer available.  of course, the field is very crowded and a great deal of effort might be required in order to weed out the proper candidate.

 

[mr. kudlow gets my vote but ms. caruso-cabrera might very well be more deserving in spite of her prominent assets.]

 

the good news for FBN is that whomever holds that title in their lineup will soon be replaced by the arrival of the former cnbc employee.

the list is long and terribly infested with deserving contestants.

 

cramer, liesman, bartiromo, pisani, hobbs ...

 

mr. hobbs is a particularly tragic case.  his first appearance was heartening.  he showed up on fast money and promptly lambasted the traitors [ahem, traders] for pumping things to their viewers [nearly so many, i suspect, as there are traders featured on the show since dylan left] which they wouldn't be able to exit so easily as the FM folks could.  apparently the experiment to clone what passes for mr. cramer's brain and transplant it into an unwitting [unwitting after the procedure, that is] victim was swift and successful for he immediately changed his tune and grabbed the GE banner.  very sad.  

 

i've no doubt that all of the participants of the zero hedge board can contribute similar stories regarding the value of cnbc's on-air talent; hence the need for a poll.

he is the digital dickweed.  Back in June 2009 he said the recession was over.  Unfortunately now NBER seems to agree with him.  As far as I am concerned that makes NBER a digitial dickweed as well.  The recession has not ended....you can't have a double dip without the first one ending.

Kneale was one of the reasons I stopped watching CNBC. Not that I would go back, but still. I don't have Fox Business, but have been watching Bloomberg occasionally. I found that I trade better without all the TV spin anyway.

Now if Santelli were to jump to Fox, I would order Fox right away!

About two years ago Lies man came on here and chunked a few comments when he hears he was being dissed on zerohedge.

Kneale does make a great 'token weiner'!

Do they have tanning booths in the big house?  Is Mozilo going to the big house?  We could all stare at him like he should be in the big house...while we are dining at his favorite restaurant. Lets all find out where this guy likes to hang out, and just stare at him for a while.  Stare at his funny tan psychosis...

 

Where does Andrew Mozilo of Countrywide Mortgage fame hang out?

An odd move by fox.  What value do they see in kneale?  He reminds me of the permanent office mail boy.  Maybe he has some dirt of some sort.

Santelli should move.  I guess the only way he can stomach those CNBS morons is by getting to stay out of the studio.

 

I find it funny that the CNBS people think they are part of wall street, and part of the elite trader HF crowd.   Little do they know they are pawns and are routinely laughed at by the banksters.

Fox has cast kneale as the character in the movie, Superman - Jimmy the Errand Boy.

Any legitimate news network that would hire that guy for anything than a "childrens toys" segment should be questioned as a reliable source for the news (whatever that is).

Dennis began at CNBS on 10-11-07, on which date the SPX printed the high of the century.

Wonder if moving to Fox could be a tradeable event?

Dude was getting mind boggling $500,000 a year @ CNBC. Proving in America stupidity pays. 

Hard to believe CNBC didn't re-sign him. Harder still to believe that Fox did.  My bet is for about 1/2 of what he was getting @ CNBC.

Fox picked up Neale for the same reasons this post has over 100 comments...  It aint' exactly rocket science.  If you needed talent to be on TV, we'd be watching nothing but snow.  Wait, we can't even watch snow any more, thanks to digital TV.

I wondered why all of a sudden Dennis Kneale disappeared from the chair in the afternoon, especially the 1:00 pm timeslot this summer.  They where getting rid of him and it won't be too long for the Power lunch crowd with Sue Herrera and the others.  Because their show used to be 2 hours 12-2 and now it's cut to 1 hour.  I think that Michelle Caruso Cabrerra will get her own show for next year (eye candy factor, but that won't last long either).  Sue is one of the last ones left from the old days of CNBC, I think eventually they are going to push her out.  I think they are cutting up the big blocks of time in order to test who and what types of shows seem to be getting it's hooks into it's fan base.

$500K a year, wow.

Propaganda is a great business. Kneale was a douchebag but not anymore than the rest of the cast and crew except for Santelli.

Liesman is so disingenuous he looks like the "bumboy" for the administration.

CNBC Europe is much more balanced than CNBC US. CNBC should keep Santelli and bring back Ratigan. Diana Olick is also worth watching.

His Ex-Colleague aka Maria Burrito didnt disappoint those who were expecting third rate book from her. Below is book review from Satyajit Das:

Maria Bartiromo with Catherine Whitney (2010) The Weekend that Changed Wall Street: An Eyewitness Account; Portfolio/ Penguin

In “The Weekend that Changed Wall Street” CNBC “star” Maria Bartiromo aka “Money Honey” provides a “celebrity” take on the crisis. Some readers may be reminded of Groucho Marx’s famous comment: “From the moment I picked your book up until I laid it down, I convulsed with laughter. Someday I intend on reading it.”

There was a time, long past, when reporters merely reported on the facts and only occasionally passed opinions. Ms Bartiromo seems to have cast herself as a central and sometime the sole character in the drama. “Weekend” self consciously on each page focuses on the “I”.

The author seeks to share what happened “in a way that ordinary people can understand”. In order to do this, “Weekend” takes us into the author’s boudoir – “my world – behind the curtain of capitalism” (a hitherto unknown financial metaphor) to provide “ an intimate look at the personal stories of those involved…from the richest and most powerful to the average workers.” From the airbrushed “come hither” look on the dusk jacket to highly derivative and, at times, corny text, “Weekend” exceeds the sum of your worst fears. Certainly, as Faulkner noted about Hemingway, there will be no need for the reader to rush for a dictionary in perusing this offering.

There are problems of “time space” as the weekend seems to stretch out for a number of years, emerging through a wormhole into the European debt crisis (imaginatively entitled “A Greek Tragedy”) and the Goldman Sachs indictment over a CDO transaction. There are problems of judgement – Ken Lewis is “a quiet man who masked his masterful business sense…” (page 85) and Goldman Sachs’ “reputation was solid”. (page 183) There are problems of classification – Nassim Taleb’s “Black Swan” is apparently “a critical view of the deception inherent in financial instruments” (Page 177).

There is “in depth” analysis – “Greece was in over its head and didn’t show it.” (Page 179). There is poetry – “Each afternoon, when I alight from my car on Broad Street in front of the New York Stock Exchange, I pause for a moment to look up. I have been doing this for sixteen years; it's an automatic response. There is majesty to the edifice, and its architectural grace is breathtaking.” (page 208) There is hope, although some readers by this stage may be in despair – “…we must restore fundamental principles. We must, once again, allow integrity to guide and protect us.” (Page 208)

The real insight provided by “Weekend” is unintended. The surreal power of the vapid medium of financial TV and its frequently shallow coverage of events is striking. The “names” that curry favour with the networks for coverage and airtime is astonishing. What they say is perhaps even more astonishing, as is the author’s readiness to share “off air” and presumably private remarks. The book also reveals some interesting things about modern publishing, especially its focus on celebrity rather than content, argument or writing skill.

If the future of democracy and capitalism requires a free, knowledgeable and fearless press then this book does not augur well.

In December 1998, the Economist, reviewed Soros’ The Crisis of Global Capitalism (a fellow “celebrity”, albeit with considerably more market savvy and a habit of making money) as follows: “Because of who he is there will always be buyers for his books, publishers for his books and cash-strapped academics to say flattering things about his books. None of this alters the fact that his books are no good… A remarkable thing happens to money when it passes through Mr. Soros; it emerges multiplied, but otherwise unchanged. With other inputs the results are more disappointing – to be blunt, more in line with biology. Mr. Soros gorged on chopped philosophy, mashed economics and fact and figures swimming in grease. It was too much. Before he knew what was happening out rushed this book.” It is not known whether The Economist plans to review “Weekend”.
