Note: The poll so far is showing that folks like the cartoons, although my instinct is not to overdo them. So, this will be the last one for a while - this is a little fun on a Friday, lampooning some of our friends (colleagues, I would argue if they want to subpoena me) in the press.. Vote, if you haven't, and at the end of the day, we'll see how it all turns out.

What is the difference between what you see on TV, and what goes on in real life?
Specifically, if you see a bombastic buffoon bouncing off the walls of his set, what does any of it mean? Can anything be trusted? Is it theater, or journalism?
We heard from a number of supposedly responsible NY media sources all about how Chairman Cox had rebuked his Enforcement division, was going to withdraw the subpoenas, that Enforcement had overstepped their authority by issuing them – and then Cox comes on CNBC and basically says that is all BS. So who, and what, can you believe?
Besides me, that is?
I mean, if the talking heads are doing nothing but parroting some agenda cooked up by a bunch of billionaire hedge fund miscreants trying to spin events to the positive, how do you know what the truth really is?
These are weighty and important questions, and I have devoted considerable thought to them. And I think I have some answers.
In the spirit of spreading enlightenment, the Easter Bunny offers up some examples of what is voiced by the gibbering baboon on the screen, and what is actually really being expressed by that “TV personality”.
Now please note, before everyone gets all hot and heavy, this isn't necessarily lampooning Cramer. I mean, not necessarily. It could be anyone, Cramer, Mary, whoever. This is intended to be about generic Financial "Journalists" that have their own show and jump around like over-stimulated gibbons - not necessarily Cramer. OK? So no whining...
This is a tool to build bridges, and help folks understand. That's all.
