In the MoneyCNN's 'Your Money' Not Enthralled With New Automatic Toilet Paper Dispenser
These were the words from Ali Velshi, co-host of last Saturday’s “Your Money” on CNN, to introduce a segment on a brand new invention: the automatic toilet paper dispenser, the newest contender for the title of “least needed product ever.” Now don’t worry, Ali was obviously not serious with the little teaser, so please, halt those nasty e-mails to CNN. This new product was reviewed by Allen Wassler, who was obviously (for good reason) less than thrilled about it. CNN: Americans ‘Work More Than Medieval Peasants’In the You-Can’t-Make-This-Up Department, ‘In the Money’ show reporter Polly Labarre complained employees don’t get enough time off. We’ve got it so darn bad, according to the folks at CNN, “we work more than medieval peasants used to work.” Ordinarily, I’d debunk that June 9 report, pointing out that peasants had to work dawn to dusk eking out a living little better than slaves. But it’s so ridiculous, why bother? Like so much in the media, this little nugget comes from another goofy group that the media miraculously fail to ignore. It’s called the “Take Back Your Time” movement. The group has a long list of demands of more time off for Americans and Canadians. Media 'Suspicious' about Gas GougingIt’s déjà vu all over again. Rising gas prices and oil companies’ “record profits” fuel an almost yearly call for investigations into “price gouging.” The media then complain of alleged wrongdoing and fail to ask intelligent questions about the issue. Rising gas prices are “[k]inda suspicious,” according to CBS “Early Show” co-host Julie Chen on May 23. Co-host Harry Smith agreed saying, “It makes you wonder at least a little bit.” Media's Warning This Memorial Day: Step Away from the GrillIf you were planning on a backyard barbeque this Memorial Day weekend, the media want you to cancel it. Unless of course, boiled tofu is on the menu. Grilling, steaks, chicken, burgers, hot dogs, not to mention most of the other fixins’ are just too bad for you or the environment according to journalists.
CNN Regular Wants Premium on Gas: Another Tax"Put in a tax to make it $4 a gallon right now," urged CNN contributor Allen Wastler on the April 28 "In the Money." Wastler's motivation for higher taxes was to encourage alternatives to gasoline.
But the CNNMoney managing editor did not explain the burst in government mandates and regulations that helped fuel those alternatives. The "In the Money" team including Ali Velshi and Christine Romans not only urged higher gas prices (with taxation), but hyped the threat of $4-a-gallon gasoline, though the national average is still below $3-a-gallon. CNN’s Person of the Month: Dennis Kucinich
Monday's "The Situation Room" was the first to report that Kucinich was seeking the impeachment of Dick Cheney. Host Wolf Blitzer reported that the Ohio congressman scheduled a news conference where he would announce his articles of impeachment against the Vice President. 'In the Money' Features Kucinich's Anti-Oil Rants, No Counterarguments"One lawmaker is demanding answers from the CEOs of seven major oil companies," CNN's Christine Romans said to kick off an "In the Money" segment about oil prices. Ali Velshi and Romans welcomed Democratic Congressman Dennis Kucinich to the program on April 21, but neither offered substantial counterarguments to his anti-oil rants.
His comments went unchallenged, though the current national gas average for regular unleaded is about four cents below the same time last year. CNN 'In the Money' Drags Industries Through the Mud in Student Loan StoryGuilty until proven innocent – that was the verdict for the student loan industry on CNN’s “In the Money" on April 14. Regular panelist Jennifer Westhoven had some harsh words regarding the investigation into preferred student lending practices.
CNN reporter Christine Romans agreed, but then took the conversation a step further smearing drug companies in the process.
