Baltimore Sun TV critic David Zurawik praises CNBC’s coverage of Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner’s new bank bailout plan.
“I tuned in the noontime show, Power Lunch, primarily to see how Williams, who has been Mr. Softball lately in big-time interviews, handled his first shot at Geithner.

He was focused, forceful and asked most of the right questions, including one about whether or not Geither thought his own tax problems would undermine his efforts to get Americans to trust the banking system again.
“But Williams wasn’t what mattered today on CNBC. He was there mainly as big-foot window dressing.
