NBC promotes CNBC editor's "populist shot heard 'round the world" as lead story on Nightly News

Real nice. NBC & CNBC should know better. We bailed out these whining Wall Street loons and now they complain that the gov't is gonna bail out the millions of REGULAR Americans in foreclosure??

This guy is a nut job and he gets headlined instead of the reality of the economic global crisis.

Instead of being serious about it, the MSM plays silly political games like this. What a joke.

And the woman at 1:50 is very clearly egging the caller on. She's very clearly trying to stoke up people's anger. Sorry, but people aren't angry just because of the situation, they're also angry because people are deliberately manipulating them to be that way.

Populism? You think protecting greedy Ahol traders and Corporate TV journalists is some form of populism?Gimme a break  The lenders can get trillions in govt cheese but protecting the fabric of our society by helping people afford staying in their homes by changing their interest rates is now some horrible thing. 

 It is funny they end the segment talking about all of the millions of people who have lost their job but then do not see to make the connection that unemployed people probably can not pay for their homes. 

 It is always crap on the borrower and never any anger is ever paid at the lender, who never should gave these people loans let alone leveraged theses risky loans in a gambling game that crippled the world economy. 

 

I hate to play the effing comparison game yet again but the MSM would NEVER, NEVER show a similar rant against the BushieCo Iraq debacle.

finally someone is speaking out about the plight of rich wall street schmucks, congrats to nbc on applauding this courageous stand taken on behalf of the truly downtrodden.

It was irresponsible for NBC to lead its news broadcast with this as a news story. The CNBC reporter is supposed to report the news from Wall Street, not make his own opinion the news.Shame. Shame. Shame.
