Humorous Introspection
David Faber just made a funny comment that he seems to be the only journalist covering the Aztar story. I fell over laughing. My early morning routine is such that I am about 15 minutes behind on the TiVo until about 7 am (remember the market opens at 6:30 here), and I blast through his reports.
I TiVo a couple of things on CNBC Europe overnight that I try to zip through to get to the interviews. While this may seem insane to you, as it does my wife, the content is excellent.
So now you have a little glimpse into my routine but now that David realizes no one cares about the things he reports on, maybe someone can send the same message to Charlie. How many days are we going to be punished with the Milberg-Weiss (I don't even care enough to check the spelling) non-story?
I wonder how much money they pay these two guys and what network could do if they added that money back into the budget?
Let's try something. If you or anyone you know has something positive to say please leave a comment. If your opinion is the same as mine, please do not. If, as I suspect, there are no comments by the end of the day I will email this post to the network and perhaps this site can help be an agent of change!
I don't believe it either but it is worth the shot.

Roger,
You did not mention Enron. Who Cares ? That was 5 years ago. Enron was never the 7th largest company in the US. Just in revenue one year.

The Aztar debacle is compelling. This is a lesson on how not to acquire another company. I’m sure that Pinnacle regrets not having consulted with someone like E. Katz (New Jersey) or of equivalent caliber.
As for the other news items on CNBC one never really knows what others find interesting. Enlightenment is relevant to the receiver as beauty is to the eyes of the beholder.
Regrettably one might conclude that there may be fewer class action pundits in the future. Somehow the opposite is more likely.
