Trump still torments CNBC's Jarvis

December 30, 2008

The New York Post reports that New York real estate developer Donald Trump wants to know why CNBC reporter Rebecca Jarvis, who was a contestant on his “Apprentice” show, doesn’t mention that in her online bio.

The Post reports, “‘In your very nice . . . bio, which airs on CNBC, many facts are mentioned about you, some very unimportant,’ Trump wrote to Jarvis. ‘But the only thing you don’t mention is that you were on ‘The Apprentice,’ which is the sole factor leading to your job at CNBC. How quickly we forget.’

“A CNBC flack said: ”The Apprentice’ got Rebecca a courtesy interview, but her intelligence, determination and background in both journalism and investment banking got her everything else.'”
