Becoming the first CNBC Guest to Bring Female Models onto the network: PRICELESS
Last Friday, many of you watched as I became the first CNBC guest to use female models to help showcase the true beauty of stock charts for their contest that now boasts over 750,000 contestants. I’ve received hundreds of congratulatory emails, IMs and phone calls from people who liked this new twist. A few people were offended, claiming the stunt demeaned women.
Let me set the record straight, I don’t think this demeaned women in any way, especially considering I had over 200 models apply for these three slots. Female models promote everything from fashion to cell phones, why not finance? I also received many emails from women saying they were offended that all the guests and the majority of the studio audience was male. I cannot help that, I’m just a guest, not a producer.
Hopefully, CNBC understands that we need to come up with new ways to inspire the younger generation to become interested in the wonderful world of finance.
