Which one do you prefer? Are there any other similarly good financial news channels?
Thanks for any opinions

Is it just me or is CNBC more
Is it just me or is CNBC more American focused and Bloomberg more global?
I'm probably gonna get shit on for this, but I'm goin with CNBC. I prefer to bathe American ignorance and vast oil/natural gas reserves than here about Greece's problems. Greece's GDP is slightly larger than Minnesota's. Why the fuck do they get so much coverage? I've never heard them mention anything about Minnesota over at Bloomberg.

I go for BNN, but I'm Canadian and work in oil so naturally I'll watch the only one focusing on canadian (primarily energy) stocks.
But when it comes down to it I don't really watch any of them... have yet to find anything enlightening from their programs.

I think Tom Keene is OK, don't really like Sara Eisen, try to watch all Stephanie Ruhle interviews, and find Adam Johnson a bit arrogant (is this inherited from his trading career in the past?).
What is CNBC?
CNBC is just ESPN with Mandy
CNBC is just ESPN with Mandy Drury. Mindless talking and not remembering what they said 20min ago.
I like how they try to pretend that they have breaking news and it's 2 hours old news.
