The Cable Game had noticed awhile back that the CNBC website had all but disappeared--folded into MSN Money. That is, folded in with those media-geniuses at Microsoft who also gave us--drumroll please!--MSNBC!!
Now I see that CNBC has relaunched itself, pledging to focus more on video and investor tools. There's a new CNBC.com, we are told--and in fact, the logo is different, that much I am sure of.
Well, maybe. CNBC is no longer cursed with the likes of John McEnroe and Tina Brown, but so long as a smug and self-satisfied self-promoter like Donny Deutsch on its air, we know that it's not a real network, but instead just a promotional vehicle for various hacks and has-beens. And that reminds me: Does Michael Eisner still have a show on CNBC? I hope I'll be forgiven for not knowing, either way.
