Since Cramer is "friends" with Les Moonves of CBS, this isn't such a stretch although I doubt the show would return to CNBC if it didn't succeed. Maybe the new Fox business channel instead--Cramer is a huge fan of 24 and some of the things Fox does, and they'd likely bid nicely for the show.
I could easily see Bartiromo joining The View in place of Rosie O'Donnell. Trump is right about her--she's got to go!
