She is pretty non biased actually
 
Honestly I am surprised it was her who went to Fox  Kernan is wingnut
 
Maybe Fox is trying to get less extreme in taking Maria.  She is actually quite good

I respectfully and strongly disagree. She seems to have become far more conservative and has taken to defend the banks (cf. Citibank CEO) and doesn’t seem to understand simple concepts like the debt and fiscal cliff. She leaves at the end of her CNBC contract. Did she choose to leave, or did they opt not to renew her contract? They wished her well, but didn’t say they’re sorry to see her go.
 
The few times I’ve seen her, she was a lunatic ranting through a defense of what usually is indefensible. She’s become the Hasselbeck of finance “reporting”. I’m guessing she became too conservatively spinny for CNBC, always seeming to defend big money rather blindly, and so they had their fill as she became too high maintenance and decided to call it quits. I would not be surprised if she took the Fox gig at 50 cents on a dollar just to keep herself above water.
 
But that’s my opinion based on my own observation of her performances.

The only person on cnbc I really like is Bob Pisani.  He has made me more money than I can ever thank him for.  Maria used to be pretty fair (much like Becky quick is now), but all the praise heaped on her seems to have gotten to her head.  Best of luck to her at fox, I am sure she will be successful there.

Not surprised. Lux strikes me as someone who would
get a thrill up his leg from the likes of Chris Matthews.

Ditto for Bloomberg. 
 
I avoid all Murdoch propaganda, including WSJ too.
And I wouldn’t even wrap a fish head in IBD.

Oh I dunno, the bottom of the bird cage is appropriate. Fish head tho, no, I’d want to make soup out of the fish head & wrapping could make it rotten.

I think you might be confusing FOX News with the Fox Business Network.      FBN is currently a distant runner up in their niche.

i admit it. used to have a crush on maria about 10 years ago. today there are much better journalists/eye candy.

[Unknown Member]

She may do better at FOX business
 
Fox is an Old Guys network.  She is 46 so to Those old coggers she will still be the money honey

[btomba_77]

It’s interesting actually.  All of the business networks have seen their audience shrinking over the last few years.
 
Maybe it’s a temporary lull with “financial crisis fatigue” causing people to simply avoid them, but some people think the market might just be shrinking as more and more people stop trying to “beat the market” and instead “just set it and forget it” with low cost index funds, letting the market “do it’s thing” on a day to day basis, ignoring the static.

I’m one of those people that used to listen a lot in the morning on the way to work but it’s become disinteresting.  Like news about QE, or jobs, or anything has become very repetitive.  The Fed is continuing QE and Jobs are up but not enough to make anyone do a cartwheel.  If I listen to business news I’m more apt to listen to bloomberg radio on SiriusXM in the morning.  CNBC often feels like they are kicking a dead horse or it’s just repetative segments.  I do enjoy some Jim Cramer from time to time though.

It supports my theory that people are becoming more cash-based and less strung out on maxing their credit lines. They have less discretionary funds to invest and so don’t feel as much of a need to consult those money venues anymore.

Look, we have no idea of the conditions that drove her to FBN. As I said, it could simply be that CNBC opted to not renew her contract and so she went to whatever other port would take her in, along with her irrational ranting which, in my view, stems from her extreme frustrations that she has not been able to achieve her feverishly ambitious career goals which keep getting interference from the male variety of the species.

Extreme ambition often works against you, and she’s a textbook case. I predict she will not do well on Fox because she’s not a team player and will not kowtow to the Fox suits.

I’ll be very surprised if she makes it thru the first term of her Fox contract. Meanwhile, the CNBC announcement simply says “Maria is leaving. Good riddance!”

coming out of the SMartmatic/Dominion discovery….

In one of the most bizarre bits, the filing reveals that Powells Dominion voting conspiracy came in part from an email Powell received from a tipster who claimed that ANTONIN SCALIA was secretly murdered while on a human-hunting expedition and who claimed to be internally decapitated (The Wind tells me Im a ghost, but I dont believe it, the tipster wrote in the email).

Host MARIA BARTIROMO, who agreed to have Powell on her show [i]after[/i] reading this email, never told viewers about the source of Powells claim. As Foxs then-managing editor in Washington BILL SAMMON said of the networks coverage at the time: Its remarkable how weak ratings make good journalists do bad things.

[/link]

 
…
 
[b]In 2014, after more[/b] than 20 years at CNBC, Bartiromo heard from her old boss, Ailes, who was eager to find a way to hire her at Fox. She proposed a show that would marry her business expertise with Fox’s politics-focused brand. “I was always struck by the fact that [the Sunday politics shows] never talked about the economy,” she said. Ailes loved the idea.
 

Neither could have anticipated that fellow New Yorker Donald Trump would come to the White House a short two years later and take control of the countrys political life.

 
…
 
In Bartiromos telling, it was her doubts about the Russia investigation that drew her closer to the Trump worldview. She openly criticized Muellers investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, repeatedly claiming that the origins of the investigation were politically motivated and a coup to take him down, as she said in an April interview with Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.).
…
 
Ever since I started covering President Trump and covering the coup and the effort to take him down, I became the enemy of the media and the activists and the mobs, she said in an interview with The Washington Post, again echoing his language (as well as some of his hard-wired sense of grievance). I have an edge. I mean, I stick to my guns and Im not easily blown off.
 
…
 
Her conviction that the rest of the media is biased against Trump now extends to social media. Like the president, the newswoman herself has seen some of her tweets flagged by Twitter for promoting misinformation such as the Federalist article she shared the day after the election headlined, Yes, Democrats Are Trying To Steal The Election in Michigan, Wisconsin, And Pennsylvania, and her following days evidence-free claims of AZ poll workers forcing voters to use sharpies thereby invalidated ballots and 4 am dumps delivering tens of thousands of swing state votes for Biden.
 

She decried the medias role in calling the election for Biden. The medias role is to report the facts, and I think its up to the electors to report on who the president is, she said on her show long after all the major networks had called the election for Biden but before the electors voted on Dec. 14. Now that that vote has happened, Bartiromo told The Post that she acknowledges Biden as the president-elect. That said, you still have a sitting president contesting the election, which I will cover as well. I will also ensure to cover any instances of fraud, not just for this election but for future elections.

…
 
 
Bartiromo was mentioned 46 times in the {Dominion} letter to Fox, the most of any Fox personality, largely for giving so much airtime to Trump allies Rudolph W. Giuliani and Sidney Powell.

There’s $ to be made being a lamprey on the great white grifter.  Pick a side and roll with it.  George Conway does the same.  I think a lot of these talking heads are there for the dollars.
 
Look at the proud boy leader.  He was making money of the Trumpy folks, and was also making money selling Biden stuff.  He’s a businessman that plays a gangster.
