Cramer vs Not Cramer: The “Battle” comes to a Head
Posted by mistergroonk in Interviews, USA, Versus on March 13, 2009
Unless you’ve been living under rocks the last 24 hours, you’ve seen or had emailed to you, The Daily Show interview with CNBC’s Jim Cramer.
Comedy Central, in their infinite wisdom, did not provide embed capabilities for the full edited interview. They do provide this opportunity for the smaller unedited clips(1 seen below, 2, 3). This tactic divides and confuses our web critical mind.
What have we learned from all this? Jim Cramer knows/knew what he was doing all the time and Jon Stewart got the chance to represent us(the angry Americans) and boil the man in his own pudding.
GNET’s understanding of Old Media tactics are amateur(top seated, thank you) at best. Except for what we observe over the passing years and what Dan Carlin shares via his Common Sense regarding the practices of news show managers.
Is it fair that Cramer gets the brunt of all this ire? Probably not. There are plenty of so called reporters and news experts that should share that hot seat with him. A thing Stewart admits towards the end of part 3 unedited interview.
Did it feel good to watch? Oh, hell yes.
