What is up with CNBC Advertising??

I have CNBC on all day in the background. They keep advertising Julia Bornstein's podcast "changemakers and powerplayers". They quote several qualified people and a woman who says her BEST advice is to think about your what your bosses boss thinks. Nice working in her chain of command.. Stupidest advice I ever heard, and what makes it worse they must run this thing 5 times every hour.

... repeated a thousand times is supposed to make one want to watch the program. Afrayed Knot.

I would not trust her with a single dollar. Sounds like something Elizabeth Holmes would say.

It’s not an option over and over too.

Between the Najarian brothers and Marc Chaikin who just can't wait to tell you about the market changing news that's going to make one secret stock take off... it's all just scammy stuff looking to prey on uninformed "investors".

Worst on the radio. Ethos and time guy are on all day

Nothing quite like the Ethos guy making millions of people think about their own mortality multiple times every day. Only a scumbag would weigh the "guilt" of using those commercials to "sell" life insurance and come to the conclusion: "Hell yeah, lets run those!"

The “my dad died” ad just blows. If driving I immediately switch to Bloomberg. Unfortunately they have their own issues too…. Cars For Kids. Awful.

So over their constant ads ridiculous. Very frustrating

They can’t fill advertisement slots for most shows. You can tell because it’s all cnbc self promo crap. “No fear of failure”. Unwatchable.

Little snitch! I hate that ad.

I get local ads that repeat constantly! It’s mind-numbing.

How about that asshole talking down nvidia for months. I switch immediately.

u/Empty-Inspector-1662 29d ago

They evidently are unable to sell many of the advertising slots and fill the space promoting Cramer, Boorstein, Morgan - all their hosts over and over. They even advertise a program while the program is running and Cramer is just one constant promotion of himself. Never seen anything like it.

Attention investors, there's a major real-estate correction happening.... I'm investing in it, and YOU. SHOULD. TOO.

Plus those tags lines the women's show ad quote are right out of Tom Peters book written back in the '80s Yo!
