I don't buy Cramer's shtick anymore. I don't think he really cares about educating and informing his audience. I think he cares about growing his audience, having an unfettered platform to express his views on the markets and politics, and fielding obsequious calls from viewers. The guy will say just about anything about anyone for viewership. It's PR, not financial journalism. Today's episode (6/11), was the most recent example of this blowhard behavior. He excoriated views critical to AAPL's AI rollout yesterday and subsequent stock increase, as if they had insulted his daughter. Over the top vitriol, going after Wall Street analysts (among others), mocking their MBAs just because they have a different opinion. He called it 'conventional stupidity"; schizophrenic; the analysts were morons; AAPL haters. There's no respect there. It's not dignified, not teaching, nor informing, and I know he wouldn't want it to be characterized as guidance either, right? He wouldn't want to be on the hook for offering investment advice lest he be held accountable. It’s his show, maybe he catches similarly unfair crap from reddit posters or analysts and he wants to respond? Be that as it may, I don’t want to hear his retort. If I do have to sit through it, then he should mind his audience, manage his tone and speak clearly. Mad Money is #9 in CNBC’s viewers as of today's survey, not exactly a stellar showing. CNBC throws all kinds of ad time ($) promoting his club and CNBC Pro. How well is all of that monetizing? Are club numbers growing? Many cancellations? It would be interesting to know. I, for one-- will NOT be watching anymore.

watch 6:45am pac, to 7am. 6 commercials , 2 minutes news, 6 commercials, and I turn off at 7am.
I don't mind split screen commercials, but full screen commercial only and I won't watch.
Cannot use this channel as is.

Joe Kernan is extremely negative and always in a foul mood.
Scott Wapner is a narcissist and unintelligent to boot. He teamed with Jim Cramer to humiliate Tony Dwyer. It was embarrassing to watch Wapner's childish performance.

I especially enjoy watching Joe Kernan. He brings reality and common sense to the show that the other hosts often lack. Without him there'd be no divergence of opinion, like the rest of NBC/MSNBC!

cramer has ruined the 9am show. he talks over david and carl, the two guys i want to hear. some moron at the top decided to make cramer the investment club guru and now he can't fit his head through the door move shep to 6 and cramer to 7 or just get rid of shep and let kelley do the news
Here's a news alert!!
Politics are divisive.
And I understand that some things going on in Washington effect the markets.
But, Sqawk Box is turning into "The other morning Joe"
An endless parade of partisan hacks come on the show just to point their fingers at "The other guys".
The main reason nothing good happens in Washington is because politicians are just looking for a camera to show their base how tough they are, and refuse to compromise.
The other parade on Squawk Box, is a bunch of 80-90 year old billionaires whining about taxes.
Bring your tax forms if you want to whine.
I don't believe for a minute that you pay as high a percentage as the middle class.
You can live an extravagant lifestyle without showing taxable income.

If they’d get rid of Joe Kernen on CNBC, I’d watch. Next is James Cramer. They are so abrasive and toxic that I stopped watching. I stopped watching FOX News when they became propaganda and an echo chamber for republicans so much so that they insult any thinking person.
They get rid of Joe I’m not watching he’s the best character on the show

Cramer is a condescending comic book character. I turn off the sound when he talks and turn off the show when Mad Money comes on. Much sympathy for Carl Q, a serious journalist who has to put up with Clown Cramer.

Joe is bearable but annoying even though he is a dork but in his mind, a cool dude. Cramer long past the retirement age, should do himself and the public a flavor, retire before he ruins your portfolio. BUT they are gems compared to Josh "Downtown" Brown, my question to him "What is your problem" and my advice "dude relax, spent more time with your therapist also a diet is a good thing"

Do these ratings include 11:00pm EST programming? I watch Brian Williams, as do many of my friends, at that time. I thought his show would be in the top ten?

Yes, Nielsen ratings include all programs throughout the day. The prime-time period however is between 8-11pm EST.

B. Williams is on msnbc. So you can't be watching that often.

I love CNBC and everyone on it. Well maybe not Joe Kernen so much, but he provides entertainment value. Everyone on the network is very intelligent and engaging, and mostly objective (except Joe). I have it on all day long now that I'm home most of the time and have time to focus on investing.

You don’t like Joe because he is the only conservative on the whole liberal network, maybe let us have one person to represent the viewpoint of 71 million voters...

Does it ever end with the politics and labels. Stop viewing everything on earth as liberal and conservative. What a waster of time. Great job CNBC.
