Jon Stewart hands CNBC their nuts in a sack..

No Pun intended…

Last night’s episode of The Daily Show carried a much different tone than the normal fake-news we’ve come to know and love. Mr. Stewart seemed rather irritated by the cancellation of a CNBC Analyst by the name of Rick Santelli. You might know Santelli as the guy who stood on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange  trading floor and attempted to call out President Obama on his idea of helping struggling homeowners with their bad mortgages instead of funneling all that money into scam corps like AIG and Etc Etc so on and so forth.

Rick was scheduled to come on the show last night, but cancelled on Friday for no reason, which Stewart explained as him “Bailing out” on the show.

Watch the entire episode above and make sure to pay close attention to how Stewart skewers CNBC in the first segment of the show. This is guaranteed to be a HUGE viral video by next week.

Normally i wouldn't post on economy issues, but seeing this video made it far too tempting not to share here on Recomedia.
