Could CNBC Add a Few More Tickers?

Earlier this morning a friend of mine was on CNBC for a few seconds talking about a problem he (and apparently about 30% of owners) has had with his X-Box X-Sux 360.  (Yet another reason I don’t plan on buying one…what kind of “quality assessment” thinks 70% is acceptable?)

Anyway, to my point…

I think CNBC should be considered “Short Attention Span Theater”…I’m about to puke from information overload after watching all of those tickers go by AND the additional news alerts.  No wonder people “need” 65″+ televisions, as this is way too much to take on my “little” OR “big” TV.   And no wonder so many people are diagnosed* as having ADD or AD/HD.

Man am I glad that the kid programs grace my television during the day when it happens to be on.  And luckily the radio hasn’t gone to multi-tasking (yet).

* I’ll leave that rant for another time.
