For those of you who don’t know, Dennis Kneale:

…joined CNBC in October 2007 as the network’s Media and Technology Editor for CNBC’s Business Day programming.

Kneale joined CNBC from Forbes Magazine, where he served as Managing Editor overseeing such business stories as the Internet boom, bust and rebuild; corporate scandals and investor fallout; the backlash against the drug industry amid drug recalls and soaring costs; the rise of Google, the capitalist revolution that is igniting China’s economy—and the travails of Martha Stewart, Dennis Kozlowski, Bernie Ebbers and more. In 1998 Kneale joined Forbes to expand its coverage of technology, media and health.

Kneale also made dozens of television appearances including CNBC, Fox News Channel, other major broadcast networks and morning talk shows, including NBC’s “Today” show and as a regular on “Forbes on Fox” on Saturday mornings. Kneale was also a frequent contributor to Forbes.com.

Prior to Forbes Magazine, Kneale spent 16 years at The Wall Street Journal where he was a senior editor, directing much of the coverage of new AIDS treatments, which won a Pulitzer Prize in 1997. He started at The Wall Street Journal in 1982 and covered advertising, technology and media & entertainment before becoming an editor in 1990.

Kneale began his career in journalism at the News/Sun-Sentinel in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Kneale holds a degree in journalism from the University of Florida, where he was honored as a distinguished alumni and a member of the Hall of Fame of the student newspaper, The Independent Florida Alligator.

Blah, blah blah, ZERO experience as a trader/investor aka unqualified, like fellow-CNBC commentator who managed to aid and abet a stock promoter pump a piece of crap company (see details HERE) so watch this normal guy’s take on financial blogging, namely The fly (small f due to him being a COWARD):

1. The guy claims to be a reporter but he gets offended by the financial blogosphere’s biggest clown…kinda like somebody getting angry at a clown poking fun at them during a circus.

2. Who cares what financial bloggers and their readers think, they’re ugly, unpopular, overly-greedy wannabe Wall Streeters. The most successful and biggest earners don’t care to express their views publicly because there’s no reason to do so.

3. This isn’t even worth posting any more about, just know that most people on TV and the web are useless, dangerous to listen to. I can’t believe it’s not mandatory for people to show ALL their trades and track record. EVERYONE should be required to have a page like THIS. But they don’t, nor will the cowardly finance freaks ever have one, so that’s why those who have proven themselves experts can sell products like THIS which are exploding in popularity. Cowards are boring, too bad our joke of an industry is filled with so many.

    I usually listen to this guy in my car on the satellite radio (in between Bloomberg commercials) and have never seen him on TV.

    And today was going so well.....
