CNBC= infotainment (CC: Rick Santelli, Jim Cramer, and Peter Schiff's constant appearances.)
Bloomberg= real news.
Gotta love the Schiff
Bloomberg every time, although some sections just bore the hell out of me (I'm looking at you Tom!).
On a side note, in case anyone doesn't have free streams:
www.bloomberg.com/tv = Bloomberg www.livenewschat.tv/stock-traders-chat = CNBC
Anyone know live WSJ channel?
prefer CNBC circa 2009 when they had all the hawt bishes
Erin Burnett, hnnnnngggghhhhhhh
Edit: Meant to quote the CNBC circa 2009 post
Bess Levin is all the news I can handle for one day.
CNBC is retail
BBG is institutional
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.
Whichever one Mandy Drury is on.
agree cnbc sucks. I used to like Bloomberg until I started noticing the bias towards liberals. it's run by freakin Bloomberg biggest dictator/leftist.
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 normally watch squawk box in the morning and Bloomberg at work. Other than that I just use the Bloomberg app on my ipad.
I watch/listen to Surveillance and Market Makers on a daily basis.
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 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.
I like Sara Eisen. and betty lu (idk how to spell her name correctly)

I really don't like CNBC. It's very 'Americanised' and more opinion-based.
I have a source inside FBN and they tell me there is a full-blown war going on between CNBC and basically everyone else. To that extent, Bloomberg and Fox Business are pretty much allies. CNBC has this draconian policy where they won't have someone on if they've appeared on one of the other channels that week, and if you don't give CNBC the story first they basically blacklist you for a while. FBN even came up with this to rub it in their faces a bit:

Pretty funny.
CNBC purely for the Santelli and Cramer rants
Bloomberg
CNBC and bloomberg are equivalent at times, mostly during the mid-day, but it always seems that Bloomberg takes a more global approach whereas CNBC is more US, and to some extent Europe, focused.
That being said, the after market close shows on CNBC, while informative, turn into basic entertainment (Cramer is ridiculous) whereas Bloomberg stays serious and just reports and brings on talking heads.
CNBC > Bloomberg,
but they are both bad
CNBC's hardball booking gets them better guests. Bloomberg is better content and delivers actual financial news better. Also, Bloomberg at night for Asia/Europe open.
All the TV screens around here show Bloomberg TV by default.
Bloomberg all the way. Too bad they lost Margaret Brennan.
I prefer CNBC's interface. It is more possible to catch numbers or information you might be interested in.
CNBC just to satisfy my nationalism
Bloomberg. I'm in Europe though
Bloomberg radio I enjoy sometimes. Bloomberg's problem is they are so dry. CNBC is full of fluff and is kind of background noise. I don't take either too seriously.
I started with CNBC and later tried Bloomberg because some friends recommended it. I have stuck with Bloomberg ever since.
CNBC = bloomberg = fox
Bloomberg is analysis, CNBC is financentertainment
Bloomberg more informative in my opinion
Bloomberg certainly has better content, however CNBC has some hotties!
CNBC v. Bloomberg Channel (Originally Posted: 02/10/2012)
Not sure if anyone else feels the same way, but CNBC goes to the dogs after Kudlow goes off and then we're left with "American Greed" and other "paid programming" late at night and on weekends, with the exception of Maria Bartiromo on Sunday night. On the other hand, Bloomberg doesn't run out of steam in re the global financial markets even after 7 PM and covers Asia and Europe, not to mention a little bit of Pimm Fox late into the night all the way through to compete head on with CNBC at 4 AM. I mean, who wants to watch someone advertise a new piece of exercise equipment at 2 AM when one could get the heads up on Asia/Europe? Saturdays on CNBC are equally as dry with some guy advertising a pillow, etc. while Bloomberg runs shows about entrepreneurs, etc.
Although CNBC may win during the day because it covers the markets from an American perspective from 6 AM til about 8 PM, but in the late night and on weekends, it sucks compared to the Bloomberg channel.
Anyone wonder why won't CNBC become more like Bloomberg during late nights and on weekends?
What gives?
CNBC = Chearleaders for Wall Street Bloomberg = Journalists
I was in Hong Kong for a few days last year and I noticed that cnbc there runs the entire time by blending their Asia, Europe, and US coverage.
But yes, bloomberg > cnbc
Bloomberg has actually been running a lot more "content" on nights, including original shows like TechStarsTV and The Mentor. They also run BloombergWest, Taking Stock, and Bloomberg Rewind reruns at night. Thus, they've been skimping on the Asia content, but Euro coverage usually begins around 1AM.
I used to think very highly of the channel, but honestly, they cover fb/google/apple/Amazon twice as much as everything else combined. Its not that I don't think those stocks will do well, but it would be nice if we could get some daytime coverage of some "basic" industries.
Kudlow sucks.
Mandy Drury is awesome.
Kernen is pretty entertaining.
Jim Cramer is pschotic.
Andrew Ross Sorkin is overly rational/reasonable.
Not a fan of Fast Money at all.
I don't get a Bloomberg feed at work so no comment there.
I love Bloomberg West
Cramer is both psychotic and an iffy stock picker. Sorkin is really not so bad.
Emily Chang = niiiiice
although, cnbc does occasionally break stuff before bloomberg tv. which is funny because you would think they would just look at a bloomberg terminal in the production studio for any rapidly evolving stories.
i also think cnbc attracts better guests, dalio/gross/buffet/dimon level 2-3 times a week. where bloomberg is interviewing some guys who is probably objectively a genius but nobody has ever heard of on spreads between greek political prediction markets and cds.
I like American Greed.....
hotter babes on bloomberg -> winning
I've noticed a big difference in the US from when I'm back home in Europe.
In Europe, CNBC is almost 24 hours a day, mixing Asia, Europe, and the US markets. With few documentaries. Whereas in the US, CNBC is basically American exclusive. I usually watch CNBC during business hours if I have time, then at home ESPN or Bloomberg haha.
