Zac Bissonnette, writing on Blogging Stocks, has high praise for the new CNBC show, “Business Nation,” that debuted earlier this month.
Bissonnette wrote, “It’s a lot like CNBC’s On the Money (‘It’s 7:00 on Wall Street… Do you know where your money is?’), but seems to cover more entertaining topics. The edition that I saw had a segment on the booming business of Ultimate Fighting, the use of eBay as fence for stolen goods, and a profile of the guy who invented the Super Soaker.
“I think it is one of the few CNBC shows that will appeal to investors and non-investors alike. If they’re able to continue to provide programming like the profile of the UFC, the 18-35 demographic that is so highly sought after by advertisers should flock. CNBC is owned by NBC Universal, which is a division of General Electric Company.
“The show is on Saturdays at 10, but is repeated often. If future episodes are as good as the first, this is CNBC’s best show (Yeah, that’s right Jim Cramer).”
