Whatever happened to professionalism and objectivity? How does it feel to have whiny little toddlers working for you, CNBC?
CNBC's Joe Kernen and Carl Quintanilla ripped a couple articles in the Business section of the New York Times today during "Squawk Box."

The first was the Times' story about News Corp. CEO Rupert Murdoch and his love of print. [...]

They also brought up Brian Stelter's story about the Rick Santelli outburst. "What is their point?" asked Kernen.

Unfortunately, I couldn't grab the clip. But you can watch Kernen make a fool of himself by sharing his feelings with America quite openly and ripping up the Times (video here). It makes a lovely bookend to Santelli's little tantrum.

Apparently, these grown men can't contain themselves on national Tee Vee. I don't want to begin to imagine how they act at home.
