No Mo' Larry, in this house anyway...

No_larry Because CNBC, in their infinite stupidity, are giving us more of him.  Not sure who's sick or on vacation and why they can't fill in with somebody who has at least a shred of journalistic credibility, but we are getting Larry now for two hours a day in the morning, then another hour during his regular show in the afternoon.

That's three hours of endless bullying and droning on, making essentially the same three points he's made for his entire professional life, as far as I can tell.  More dogma masquerading as news, more lobbying for his buddies pretending the be thoughtful commentary.

But unless he manages to insert himself into someplace new that I can't avoid, I will not be commenting on anything he says anymore.  There's a new rule around here: Larry Kudlow comes on, CNBC goes off. 

I can't flatter myself to think that my own practice will change any minds (if there are any) at CNBC.  But maybe if a bunch of people do it, somebody might notice that their cable rankings take a dive every time this propagandist charlatan comes on.

So, if you're reading this and you regularly have CNBC on during the day, follow my lead.  Turn Larry off!  Switch to Bloomberg.  Hell, even Fox Business is better than listening to that one-track idealogue (sorry Cody, but other than your show, FBN really doesn't do much for me...)
