Maria Bartiromo leaving CNBC for Fox Business. What took her so long?

The "Money Honey," Maria Bartiromo, is finally taking her Wall Street apologist, criminal banker loving excuse for a business anchor TV sideshow to a place where it will be really appreciated: Fox Business.

I'm tempted to ask what took her so long, however, I think the proper question is...why? Why would she go to Fox Business when CNBC has already become a Fox knock-off, with the same endless stream of make-you-want-to-gag out of paradigm economic vomit that worships austerity, corporate welfare and fraud, gold buggery, worker income debasement and the quest for inequality to the nth degree?

I'd like to think that CNBC was already considering canning her, but I doubt it. That would be giving the "brain trust" over there--Sr. V.P. and Editor in Chief, Nik Deogun, CNBC Managing Editor, Nick Dunn and President, Mark Hoffman--way too much credit.

But the real joke is on Gary Schreier, the former Fox Executive Producer who formerly produced all of Neil Cavuto's shows, who jumped ship for CNBC about a year and a half ago, apparently lured over to try to get Bartiromo's in-the-toilet ratings out of the toilet and at least onto the toilet seat. Guess that didn't work out too well, eh Gary? With any luck you'll be soon looking for work.

All we need now is to see that slouching clown, Joe Kernan, and supply-side Bozo, Larry Kudlow bail for the Fox network and the hilarious coup will be complete: The Three Stooges will have found a new home.

Honestly, if Roger Ailes thinks that Fox Business's ratings will climb with the edition of air head Bartiromo or the other two losers, if they happen to go, then all I can say is I envy him. It must be fun playing sadist to Rupert Murdoch's money. The old geezer Murdoch is probably already senile, so he doesn't even know.

CNBC,Fox, you both suck!

At this point if CNBC has any chance at all it needs to dump its editorial line, stop with the unbridled worship of corporate greed, austerity and cease with the needless blowing of smoke up the asses of Wall Street billionaires.

Oh yeah, I forgot about Santelli.

On second thought, I think there's no hope at all.

I want to like Maria, but she really has become a corporate shill. Is it just me, or has she gotten even worse since the financial crisis? Her interview with Alex Pareene about a month ago was downright shameful for anyone calling themselves a journalist. Good riddance, although its not as if CNBC will stop trying to be Fox-lite any time soon.

Bill Clinton

Jamie Dimon (Head of JPMorganChase)

Barney Frank (Architect of the Dood-Frank Act)

Timothy Geithner (Tool of Wall Street elite)

Ace Greenberg (former Bear Stearns head)

Alan Greenspan (Randian sellout)

Vikram Pandit (Head of Citi)

Henry Paulson (The former center of Goldman/U.S. Treasury)

David Rubenstein (Co-founder Carlyle Group)

John Mack (Chairman Morgan Stanley)

Mary Scahpiro (The head of SEC)
