<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WoodyWW, post: 1733442, member: 26001&quot;]I have the opposite view. I&#039;d trust Jon Stewart any day over Cramer (as a person at least). And as far as <i>&quot;Jim always had full position disclosure&quot;, </i>that may be true with his paid newsletter, but when he rants &amp; raves about buying &amp; selling diff. stocks on CNBC, there is no accountability. He makes maybe 50 buy/sell recommendations a <i>night </i>on that crazy show of his, I don&#039;t know if anyone could keep track. Personally, I&#039;m still angry with him for pounding the table to &quot;SELL Apple!&quot;, at $125 in the Spring of 2009. (It later went to $600--$700, &amp; even now is $400 or so). And personally, I was glad someone (Stewart) was finally debunking one of the Wall St. A-holes who, while he wasn&#039;t one of the people who caused the 2008 financial crisis, but for such a &quot;guru&quot;, he sure didn&#039;t see it coming, &amp; even said to hang on to Bear Stearns until it became worthless.</p><p><br /></p><p>2 articles from the NYT re: Cramer: the first, Detailing the infamous &quot;John Stewart takedown of Cramer&quot; from March 2009: Here are a couple of quotes from the article, &amp; the URL: </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/14/arts/television/14watc.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/14/arts/television/14watc.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/14/arts/television/14watc.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;And while it’s never much fun to watch a comedian lose his sense of humor, in an economic crisis it’s even sadder to see supposed financial clairvoyants acting like clowns.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;The Daily Show” has shown clip after clip from last year that shows Mr. Cramer assuring his “Mad Money” viewers that Bear Stearns was not in trouble — shortly before that heavily leveraged investment firm imploded.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s another, longer article in the NYT about Cramer from May 2011:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/15/magazine/jim-cramer-hits-an-all-time-high.html?pagewanted=4&amp;_r=2&amp;ref=magazine" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/15/magazine/jim-cramer-hits-an-all-time-high.html?pagewanted=4&amp;_r=2&amp;ref=magazine" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/15/magazine/jim-cramer-hits-an-all-time-high.html?pagewanted=4&amp;_r=2&amp;ref=magazine</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><font size="1"><span style="color: #000000"><font face="arial"><br /></font></span></font></p><p><font size="1"><span style="color: #000000"><font face="arial"></font></span><span style="color: #000000"><font face="arial"></font></span></font></p><p><font size="1"><span style="color: #000000"><font face="arial"></font></span></font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
