Goodbye Larry Kudlow Report
In a surreal and deja vu-ish turn of events, three days ago we reported that in parallel with the ongoing collapse in CNBC viewership, the ratings of some of its shows namely Jim Cramer's Mad Money and Larry Kudlow's Report had just hit all time lows.
This was met with an immediate response by Larry Kudlow himself who, alongside Groundhog Phil-fodder Joe LaVorgna, decided to take Zero Hedge to task for reporting that part-time jobs are not really full-time jobs and invited us over to their show to explain how dare we point out the weakness in the manipulated BLS datadump. We were kind enough to remind Mr. Kudlow that the last time someone from CNBC "invited" us over, i.e., Dennis "Digital Dickweed" Kneale, their show was promptly cancelled. To wit: "While we appreciate the offer, the last thing we intend to do is suffer Mr. Kudlow the same fate as that experienced by his predecessor Dennis Kneale who also invited Zero Hedge on his laughable excuse for a show in 2009, only to be sacked a few months later." Make it two for two as irony strikes again.
The NY Post reports that Kudlow's show is over.
CNBC is close to bagging former CBS News anchor Harry Smith for a new talk show, which is almost certain to replace “The Kudlow Report” at 7 p.m., The Post has learned.
Smith is already signed to NBCUniversal.
“If we could figure out a way to utilize his skills to serve our very affluent and highly educated audience I’m sure we’d be interested,” said a CNBC spokesman.
“The Kudlow Report” is off roughly 60 percent in its key 25- to 54-year-old target audience.
Next up: we expect an "invite" from Jim Cramer.

Larry is a hypocrite statist piece of garbage,
I WILL NEVER FORGET HIS SUPPORT OF TARP.
The galling part was his continual attempt to brand himself as some sort of steward of free market capitalism.
....what a pos!!!
i think i'll go brush my teeth
If CNBC keeps firing people, pretty soon they won't have anyone left that I can bet against in the market.
Pray for Tom Stolper to remain with the squid...
Larry needs to rebrand himself and say that central planning, secret presidential kill lists and tapping everyone's phone and internet is the best model for prosperity.
Kneale down before ZHod!
all that matters is QE.....why watch any talking head?
Wasn't Larry one of the Three Stooges?
Dear God,
Please have ZH receive an invite to appear on Hardball with Chris Matthews.
Sincerely,
Pretty much anyone capable of generating a brain wave
It is a conundrum. The Matthews hour is frustrating and very often difficult to watch, but I do it from time to time anyway. Why would I? For the same reason I catch Kudlow's show. It is informative to see which way their respective winds are blowing. Chris talks about guns and knows nothing about them. At least that limey weirdo Piers Morgan went out and shot some really cool firearms. He didn't change his stance on gun ownership but he seemed to have tempered his "gun nut" talk. I think Morgan found out how much fun it can be, and he saw that it's an actual sport.
Now, back to Kudlow. He is a one-trick pony: Everything is supply side economics to him and that makes him a dinosaur. I was watching a couple of days ago when, at about half-time, Kudlow went into commercial -- and didn't come back. They had a guest host sitting in. Larry has not been back since. That sounds more like a health problem than anything else. I've Googled in several ways to try to find out any gossip about why he disappeared but came up dry. Kinda weird. I'd expect some news soon.
Yes, I do watch some of the more hated personalities and programs simply as contrary indicators or to see which way the political/economic/talking-head sentiments are leaning. It's as much necessary as following the dreaded Fed pronouncements. It's just financially healthy to do so. Just because one watches Hannity doesn't mean that one subscribes to his insanity. Same for Limbaugh. He boils me faster and better than most of them, but since so many half-wits follow him, it's a good idea to keep up with the rabble. Most of those will be after my stash when TSHTF. I need to know how much lead to put aside.
EDIT: Just found Larry's last tweet. On the 9th he says feeling fine, back on air tomorrow. Oops. He wasn't back on air. I don't tweet but found this site:
https://twitter.com/larry_kudlow
Since the day that Hannity and OReally dissed Ron Paul, I will never grace their ratings with one minute of my TV time - which these days is ONLY MOVIES - and I used to be a fairly regular attendant. I do rarely watch the leftist news shows just to see what their temperment is and where their galactic attitudes are traveling--Maybe once a month. Back in 2005/6 everyone murmered the words "conspricy theories/theorist-bla bla blah" Well, it ain't no theory anymore Gladys.
Burma Shave
It was excruciating to watch the very guys who should have been praising Dr. Paul just trash him so badly. It was a sad time for any conservative who is worth his salt.
I'd like to see that bald headed Fed knob polisher turd Steve Liesman get flushed right behind Cramer. Either that or they need to hire someone to give him the Benny Hill Slap on his bald head every time he talks. Inject some Bristish comedy onto the show. Maybe Santelli could slap his head.
"....to serve our very affluent and highly educated audience...."
If CNBS had such a "highly educated audience", they wouldn't be watching CNBS, they'd be here.
Now that is funny...
Based on the number of bigots, homophobes, jew haters, conspiracy theory whackadoos and AGW deniers that call this place home it would appear "highly educated" is not all it is cracked up to be...
Being skeptical of presented information (AGW/conspiracy) and capable of unrestrained thought (reasoned cultural pattern analysis resulting in uncomfortable conclusions for absolutist cultural relativists) are signs of intelligence.
Skepticism is fine, Dunning-Kruger is a completely different matter...
PS I forgot the HAARPists....
Agreed. There is some good news, in case you missed it: http://rt.com/usa/ron-paul-media-startup-810/
Kudlow is not evil but he is not much help in analyzing the market or government policy effects. I heard that he is a former alcoholic, i hope he has not fallen off the wagon. This administration is driving many to drink.
Being a Friend of Bill's myself, I can tell you that it's not uncommon for the seemingly recovered to do just that -- at the most inopportune moment! His history tells us that coke was his drug of choice, but the essential elements are all the same. What drug one chooses is but a symptom anyhow. Kudlow's access to information is probably astounding, so he could have come onto some devastating statistic(s) which fouled his Program. This could be the equivalent of the brokers jumping out of windows during the Depression.
Yeah, Kudlow was kind of a flagship guy for CNBC, hopefully it was just a contract dispute or simply a move by the network to replace him with somebody they felt could get better ratings. They seem to be rapidly moving towards more T&A oriented programming than anything with substance (even if the substance is wrong, it's still useful as you mentioned earlier). If it really is a drug thing, I hope for his and his family's sake that he gets help. I have noticed that insiders are starting to bug out to flyover country.
You call God in to participate in your farce? You still watch TeeVee and pray to God to interject on your brainwashed behalf?
There is no amazement or wonder as to how our culture and society has fallen apart.
Dear God,
Please assist Race Car Driver in lightening the Hell up.
Sinc.,
Xtop
As if driving in circles with a bunch of other grown men is evidence of enlightened, educated, cultural superiority.
Sort of tired of the "Kill your TeeVee" crowd's smug, arrogant assumption that they are somehow better. And I don't even watch TV!
I'm not from the US. I woudn't even know who Kudlow is if it wasn't for seeing him in some random Peter Schiff youtube video.
I don't think anyone should put too much thought into who some 3rd rate network decides to hire or fire.
That "third rate" network used to have pretty good viewership and was regarded as THE channel for financial and investment types to watch. They used to advertise they were #1 in high net worth viewers. I used to have it on all the time in my office many moons ago, too.
ZH and the Tylers have the right to take a victory lap on this one.
That channel blows because it isn't doing any journalism. It isn't asking real questions. It's just a mouthpiece for the banks, sell-side financial companies, government officials, etc. They start every sentence "with the economy in recovery....." It's horsehit right from their starting premise. Recovery? For whom? Did they ever ask "who says this is a recovery?" Nope. Just another media echo-chamber channel.
Imagine if ZeroHedge had a cable channel? That would be f'in awesome! It would wake up a lot of people I think...
Agreed, but not too many 'analysts' would be coming on to answer questions. Also I'm very sure these analysts are paying CNBS to tout their wind and point of views.
All I can think right now is: "Daayyammmn!"
-
Green shoots and goldilocks........no more. Might be worth watching CNBC now....what am I saying. Now I am getting to giddy.
adios larry you fawning, preening, insignificant chunk of human excrement - now when do kermit and crammer get the ax, or for that matter that entire sanctimonious excuse for a "news" organization?
He's just a commentator for Christ sake. What is wrong with people here that they act like psychopaths at people they don't even know or watch? Seriously, this level of sustained anger at everyone and everything is dangerous for the health. Get some help or get laid or a drink - whichever is most convenient - and don't take things so seriously.
Get thee to a pulpit.
LOL Today's sermon special: We should just fucking get along!
commentator? he's a sock puppet, a shill, a bought and paid for whore - what don't you get about that?
Yeah, I know. He gets up every morning, consults with the Mother Ship on what he can do to destroy the US economy (unlike Ben or Barry who are uber trying) . Then he consults his handlers to see what agenda to deceive the American people with today. I guess, unlike the other CNBC entertainers (unless they too are part of this dastardly plot) he's expected to SPEAK THE TRUTH. LOL Jesus christ, he's just an old-school yapper from the days before you said you hated someone you didn't know.
They ARE getting along... Fighting (w/ words) is relaxing and stress releaveing. It's how we hug around here.
And now out of a job on teevee.
Hie thee to a pulpit, me thinks. The anger is in fact properly directed at one of the mouthpieces of the FED. Ever talk to common people, the man on the street, and have him spout some crap off the tele? Religion is not the opiate of the masses, television programming is.
Dear Tango,
I appreciate your concern for my emotional and mental health; however it is really none of your business. Now go fuck yourself.
Your name says it best and in true ZH fashion, the post was not "all about you" but your fellow screamers. You were simply along for the ride. Take care.
Tango,
People like Larry Kudlow patronize the government and media lies, which breeds contempt among the rational, fairminded and informed who don't appreciate the evil that is birthed from such deceit. Now really, who is the true psychopath??
Lewshine, this may come as a shock but not everyone who disagrees with the ZH agenda is a traitor or psychopath. Kudlow is mainly an entertainer who had an aging audience (much like the Tylers) and while one can irrationaly hate such folks, I'd rather reserve my disdain for self-proclaimed statists and central planners. Face it, 95% of Americans never heard of Kudlow who is "old school" - still living as if folks who disagreed could actually converse in a civil manner He doens't have to worry about that around here.
I agree. The times I've watched Kudlow, he's always treated his guests with respect and given time to opposing views. And as a Jewish convert to Catholicism and recovered addict, Kudlow shows a capacity for self-criticism and a desire for redemption that is missing in most all of his DC and NYC associates. Kudlow isn't the problem, and his show will probably be replaced by something worse from a ZH perspective.
I watch Kudlow and I don't mind him. In my opinion, his show is very enjoyable. I mainly look for which direction his guests are headed, and go contrarian. I agree he is an entertainer. He shouldn't even be mentioned together with Kneale. Kudlow is lightyears beyond Dennis the Pennis for likeability, respect, knowledge, track record. I think he's a good guy. Sorry...let the jabs begin.
#1 post said it all. Larry "free-market" Kudlow was at the head of the line begging for the TARP bailout and criticizing the government for not intervening fast enough!
You have failed the mob psychology test and will therefore be remanded for treatment in the Ideological Purity Center! I suggest you get with the program and stop this silliness about disagreement and civil discussion.
Just another in my long list of recent failures...my puts are telling the story!
Kinskian, I dare say most of the down arrows never read the post - just the first sentence, Of course it will be replaced by something worse because inevitable, no matter who hosts the show - Rand Paul, tyler(s), Ron Paul, Adam Smith - they will say something that someone doesn't agree with and thus be marched to the gallows. What's so ironic is that if the Founding Fathers acted like these ZH posters, we would never have had a country.
The Founding Fathers did act like ZH posters. You are humorously unaware of just how much shit talk used to go down back in the day. Makes the British House of Commons look like teatime with the Queen. Sorry you can handle rhetorical battles amongst men (and several women more rugged than you)?
Kudlow spends half the show trying to muffle his booze belches, that's remotely civil.
Riiiggghtttttttt...and Goebbels was just an 'ad man'.
I was wrong. I thought we'd escape at least one article whether it was about nuclear energy, oil, space travel or anarchism without invoking the wornout Nazi routine but alas, I was wrong.
The reason I hate this cunt is the way he behaved during the financial crisis. Many uneducated people were turning to CNBC for answers during scary times and he would outright lie to them. My favorite Kudlow quote was " hey, 88% of us are still employed. It's not that bad. Spend money, buy a car. This whole thing is overblown." I hope the Koch brothers think tank that hires him enjoys his bullshit.
.
Dude-Anger is valid AND useful, although it is a secondary emotion, generally preceded by an instant of fear.
Lick my balls Socrates!
Please look for lovers else where, however you should feel free to suggest that some might engage themselves or another disgustng like minded person in depravity.
Currently sitting in hot tub in Montauk while raining.
A buddy of mine in here with me. He's a Cramer worshiper.
We've been arguing, so the women left.
I'm thinking of drowning the fuk
Have a great week ZH bitchez
Note to self: talking about Kramer in hot tub isn't seductive.
Check out Pizza Village in Montauk...great pizza and heros....:)
Great! But what took em so long!!?
FINALLY!!!! It's over! Kudlow was one of the reasons why I cancelled cable. So thanks, but fuck off all the same.
Wouldn't turning the channel be easier than cancelling your cable?
The question whould be to what? There really is not an Austrian channel or Ron Paul channel, just TPTB channels.
No the answer IS turning off TeeVee altogether.
everyday, over 500 channels and there's nothing on !
Nope. Turn off that damned TV Set and keep it off for good. I disconnected about 6 Years ago and life is now real.
TV is a very poor substitute for Reality. It immediately robs you of Three of your Five Senses.
Furthermore it is not called Television Programming by accident.
Go watch some TV instead of Trolling about here in Reality. Enjoy your induced hypnosis to your own psychopathic self indulgement and narcissism. Do not even bother to awaken as it is a waste of time since you consider us part of the lunatic fringe. (Your comment to Lunatic Fringe exemplified your condescending attitude.)
Get lost Troll.

I Cor 13
Some would say that the bible is not much different than teevee.
The bible is the historical equivalent of teevee's mind control some might argue.
What does 1 Cor have to do with a "discussion" on Larry Kudlow? Maybe you should pray for me to get an attitude more in line with the group.
Well said Lord. This clown is a pumper for the statists. His ridiculous "Free Market blah blah blah" with his lips firmly wrapped around Benny's cock is disgusting
Lord,
You forgot that Larry is a BIG FUCKING COKE HEAD!! not kidding. Kinda like Chevy Chase/Ty Webb in CADDYSHACK...."Danny, do you do drugs? "everyday" THEN WHATS THE PROBLEM? lol....
(but, to be fair, I support drugs. Only thing about that garbage is you will have no face left after a while!).
Kudlow broke the first rule of fight club.
That is one small step for Larry, a giant leap for Mankind!
Who said there is no good news...
Not to worry, Fox Business is always on the lookout for a sociopath.
Lots of candidates out here. LOL
Good riddance to bad rubbish...
well put Howard!!
right on....im happy this morning!
should have went with cramer
Cramer can still be useful. They could have a show where he fights wild animals and clowns to the death or something.
Cramer versus Maria! The War for MOAR! Pay per view.
They'd make millions.
Becky vs Maria! No Holds Barred Oil Wrestling.
Of course you have to get Buffet's priapism out of Becky's mouth, if that's possible.
I can see Cramer doing those $19.95 commercials.
Yes, but the question here is, can he beat Vince from ShamWow?
Pity, Kudlow was always good for a laugh.
Maybe now he will have more time to "drill baby drill" for "free market capitalism" and "king dollar".

Go baby! Swallow that "corndog..."
Good, he has a horse head anyway!
Now get rid of Maria. Kernan can be trained to shut up and keep his opinions to himself. Santelli is the only dude who cares about reality because he comes from a place where reality means profit. Do they even have that little kid they hired to give Communist opinions in the morning with Kernan? If he is still there, he has to go. You could replace 90% of their content with a realtime data ticker showing more than 100 stocks at a time and their ratings would go up.
I think they should skip all the pretense and just run puppet shows.
It already is a puppet show...
8>D
Yes but it lacks authenticity. Perhaps fair Maria should wear a little felt hat with a peacock feather, and Cramer carry a little wooden paddle.
Only if they are completely naked other than the hat and paddle.
This is bad!
What the hell are we going to do now?
Go back over to Kitco. There is a Noob with the name Get ze Gold.
But he actually made a good thread.

They should replace him with Magilla Gorilla, sound effects and all.
Oh. Wait. The balding ape's show is still on?
I hear Pee Wee Herman is looking for a job ? CNBC can turn over a new leaf and give him a try.
I thought they already hired him. Isn't that the guy in the morning with Kernan and Squicky?
Affluent and highly educated audience..... Bwahahahaha. Your audience can't even read ticker symbols so you provide them with the retard tape instead. What a joke.
please go on k ramers show. just the thought of this democrata shill having a show and somewhere to push spitser soks is too much to bear
Ahhhhhh,....... bourbon time. One blowhard at a time.
:larry kudlow naked:
ha ha bitchez!
Chris Christie naked and sitting on your face.
Back at ya!
I learn more about the economy and state of this country watching True-TV than I do watching CNBC
"Cops" rocks, until you realize that that's the norm.
or Storage Wars
Need to get rid of Mark Zandi, annoying pollyanna! Which is why they'd never sack him.
Static would be an improvement.
Kudlow trying to suck of Zero Hedge's popularity just a little too late. I haven't watched CNBC since 2009. Life is good!

Well....those who refused to invest in the market (because, you know, it's fixed and fake and doesn't deserve to go higher) instead sold at the lows and bought....gold at $1800/oz and now that's tanked. I can understand being upset because of pisspoor investment decisions but to blame others is a little too much. I guarantee that as close as the Tylers follow Goldman, JPM, foreign exchanges and the technicals he's not investing like his followers. Have a nice day.
Care to back up your assertions on that one. Virtually you've entered the discussion as an apologist, defending disenguous "news" anchors with little more than the words of a co-dependent mother protecting her ill behaved child. There is nothing you can guarantee but that your trolling is meant to justify a position that you may not really have but are paid to extol nonetheless. Obviously you think as per your statement that the market 'deserves' to be higher. What this is based upon considering the weight of evidence against such an assumption seems vague and disenguous and once again can only be supported as the result of you being a trolling plant seeking some sort of redemption for the lies, hypocrisy and outright delusional unreality purported and planted by the various shills and mouthpieces of the MSM. But please carry on with your drivel as it pleases us readers so. And no my demographic is well below the average age on this forum and I'm a well educated, non-conforming athiest who chooses as a grown up to deal with reality no matter how painful or difficult that might be. You on the other hand choose to defend the narcissist and the sociopath whild avoiding dealing with the larger picture of how the public has been brainwashed to accept at face value the manipulation and lies fed to them by a media owned by the few who wish to control what you see. Perception is not reality but obviously you swallowed the wrong dose of such medicine long ago.
holy. freaking. shit.
i love ZH. i neve want to see anything else but ZH. ZH is the greatest ever (I don't want to cross ZH and face the wrath like Kneale and Kudlow).
Oh, BTW, fuck Larry Kudlow, definitely fuck whoever his host was last night, and in general, fuck CNBC. looks like people are waking up and tuning them out....i only watch because it is good to keep an eye on your enemy.
TYLER....care to share any updated 'traffic data' for ZH??
Opt for the premium plan and you get it for free.
I repost lots of ZH articles. I was hoping by doing this that it would bring more lost sheeple to reality (by bringing them to ZH).....is the traffic up, down, level? Thanks.
ZH is funded by cult members at the present time.....but plans are in the works to achieve NPR status.
Keep your fingers crossed and thank your grandkids for their future taxes.
I wonder if even the 'mention' of ZH on MSM will seal your fate.....when Kudlow brought up ZH, I didn't take it all bad. maybe he was off script some (actually doing what is right) and it got him in trouble.
What day was it....has he been back on the air since then (I know he was on last night...had someone who was 10x worse on...i literally almost broke the damn TV because I couldn't find the remote and i was so pissed off i was jabbing and slamming trying to turn the channel)......
It's typical mob mentality - piling on for the sake of piling on. Folks who've never watched or heard or know anything about Larry Kudlow are foaming at the mouth in phony rage like 8-year old kids. On ZH, anyone failing the ideological purity test (everyone except the posters themselves) immediately becomes the "evil enemy". The idea of a smart retort, simple agreement or irony is unknown around these parts. Said it before, ZHers may well survive the comoing financial apocalypse but who in their right mind would want to live in a society where disagreement is tantamount to treason?
Just who in their right mind wants to live in the abomination that we have now?
You just don't get it. So stop trolling here. Go enjoy some Television. You are not being forced to stay. Nobody here has twisted your arm. I am not reading any comments that are begging your presence.
All I see is a lot of Negative Feedback.
Your TV Set is calling you. It is saying, "Watch me...Watch me...I will tell you everything that you need to know. Don't turn me off. You need me. Be a Satist Minion. You can have that new Lexus if you really want it. Go into debt. Gold is bad. Stay away from money. Buy Stocks. Buy...buy...BUY."
You just don't get it. We are done with the State.
Collapse, baby, collapse.
The very best action that all members of Congress, the President, and the Supreme Court can do is to SUBMIT THEIR LETTERS OF RESIGNATION. Why not resign yourself?
Why submit yourself to this punishment if you dislike us so much? We are not forcing you to stay. We are not forcing you to go. Although we are encouraging that.
It is Summertime. The Girls are wearing nothing. Go outside and enjoy the Eye Candy. Leave us to our whims.

I Cor 13
Tall,
I;m not saying Shut the fuck up. You can preach all day but don't start the old troll shit - automatic reflex for those without an argument. I guess (and this galls your absoutist religious views) that I hang around because I can and I want to. The gals around here are wearing clothes so that option's shot. I do have to head off to a class of immigrants who I tutor where I work with REAL Christians- you know, those who actually do things other than sit around posting Bible crap on political blogs. I won't disappear simply because someone clicks a down arrow or you disagree.
Besides, if jesus is coming "soon" and the world ends (as the Bible promises) why should you give a rat's ass about the Supreme Court, Larry Kudlow or trolls? Take care.
I disagree, i see plenty of frank and insightful discussions take place, often times, yes, people devolve into blind other hate, but i wouldn't go so far as to state it as the rule.
If you understand the nature of what we're going through, how merely the proclamations of Bernanke literally cause massive ripples and price distortions, not just on a contrarian level, or even of simple blind faith one, but to the point where both are happening simultaneously as well as whole other currents aground the data stream signaled by information you don't have access to and wouldn't believe.
Nothing, anywhere, can be taken at face value, because the very nature of truth has been undermined.
Getzeegold above made a statement about the atmosphere being cultish, and i agree, at times what appears to be a strict adherence to uniformity of opinion presents itself.
But what really is the alternative? And no, i'm not asking for a lecture on free and reasoned debate.
The ZH KiSS oF DeaTH strikes again

Puppet Larry.. Rule #1 you D.A.M.F.rrrr
Stay down. Thanks Tyler.
Ok Whos next?
I wish they'd put a fork in my local a.m. radio financial talk show.
Tell them they need to interview ZH...
Seems like a nice guy, however he sits just a hair to the right of center on most issues which doesn't exactly excite anyone into watching his show. John McCain or Lindsay Graham even John Boehner could fill in for him at any moment.
Poor Kudlow is going to be passed around now from lib network to lib network like a stripper at a frat party.
the prince of conservative values and free markets, LOL..did he think anyone but the die hard lib viewers of cnbc snorted that line of bs?? but yes he will be the go to conservative voice for the left..scarboro is very afraid he's next-mccain is looking for a spot on cnbc as a conservative voice of reason...gag
I guess that one down arrow must have been the stripper.
Would you guys mind visiting ABC, NBC, CBS, the NY Times, the Washington Post, the Boston Globe........
You forgot Faux News
Krudlow and Faux Biz News, a match made in heaven...
He could provide left wing balance to Stuart Varney...
and Bernanke, Obama, the other one, the 535, the gang of 9, and White-Shoe Mafia...
CNBC is for entertainment only, so Cramer should stay because at least he is sort of funny to watch. Kudlow is just ...like nothing. I wish they could bring back Erin Burnett and Trish : ) ) add Becky and put the trio on some nice biquinies and their rates will sky rocket.
"put me in coach." I would have no problem appearing. understanding this bond buying program and it's myriad of malcontents (I mean the celebrations vis a vis the annihilation of QE and all debt markets in general were a bit over the top Seeking Alpha...far from unsurprising of course with Miriam Metzinger leading the charge.) obviously I have no answers but I do have an understanding (I think) in what the Fed is actually doing and insofar as that matters "a way NOT to lose a fortune." trust me folks the world is "copying" this program everywhere now. but you have to understand history to understand why it only works in the USA and nowhere else. trust me you'll fall asleep if I tried to explain.
The lie machine is running out of gas.
Even the average American is starting to understand there is a difference between the economy and the stock market.
Not that the "average American" has anything to do with it, but I wouldn't be surprised if today is the day; i.e., stocks and bonds end the day down, with the TNX yeild at recent highs or better (this truly is a last chance gift by Bernanke to people like Bill Gross--not purposeful...).
This news should make Larry ecstatic. Ratings down = ad revenues down. His termination is free market capitalism working to perfection.
The first rule of Fight Club. Never mention Fight Club.
Now all it takes for a show to be cancelled is the thought of a ZH appearence. Good going.
Farewell, Larry.
And may ass monkeys fly over your house and crap in your yard in salute to all your fine broadcast efforts.
"Always leave ém wanting more !" .... Anonymous clean and articulate Jew
Kuldow deserves to be sacked. His advice and commentary is crap.
If you can stomach it, watch this clip from 2007.
Kudlow along with the usual suspects, Bob Pisani, Barry Ritholtz, Noah Blackstein, and Ralph Acampora discuss the stock market's new highs and the economy.
All were clueless about the trainwreck that was about to happen.

"...serve our very affluent and highly educated audience ...,” said a CNBC spokesman.
Correction:
"...serve our very fiat-endowed and highly certified audience ...", said a CNBC spokesman.
Funny, the alternative financial media doesn't seem to be suffering from these low ratings. Zerohedge isn't exactly in freefall for readship, and plenty of people are still tuning in to see Lauren Lyster's legs on RT. Gerald Celente and Max Kaiser still get plenty of air time, as do Marc Faber and Jim Rogers.
It's the dinasaur media that seems to be in trouble. They've brainwashed the sheeple public for years into not caring about real events and to believe everything they are told, so these pricks shouldn't be surprised when no one watches their crap propaganda anymore, because after all, everything is going great according to them...
