Level 3 Q1: Revenues Light, Job Cuts Expected

Cutting 150 is old news. They gave people their notice on Bring your child to work day. How is that for the most unaware management?

Stewart vs. Cramer: A Cheap Shot

We are all so gullible about where we get our information. We are naive to think that all of the network news and financial shows on TV are to give us inciteful BALANCED news that will better inform us to make rational decisions. When in reality they are all about getting higher viewer ratings that will allow them to reap bigger advertising income. That is it.
Stewart's initial target was CNBC, but it became a better story to focus on Cramer. We can certainly see that all of the CNBC shows are dominated by talking heads telling you where to invest your money. Who would watch a show that day after day told you to get out of the market? Where would they get CEO guests to come on and tell you NOT to invest in their company? Yes, CNBC is the eternal optimist because it profits their business.
They are now convenient targets for our anger. Instead, why are we not asking our government to take responsibility for allowing this catastrophy to occur?
