Post by: Cubic Earth on July 02, 2014, 10:28:32 AM I enjoyed the clip. The last, long cycle of media negativity towards bitcoin seems to finally be yielding to positive coverage.
LiteCoinGuy, I share your enthusiasm that bitcoin is an inclusive project, and it's good to see people from all walks of life are realizing its transformational potential. I don't know about calling Charles Payne 'the next "black" matt miller' though. I find that characterization a little bit distasteful. But I'm happy to have racial diversity amongst the bitcoin faithful, and it sounds like you are too. I think it's great he is on a different network. I'm pretty sure FOX and Bloomberg have different demographics. Title: Re: [2014-07-02] Video: Bitcoin quietly making a comeback? Post by: medUSA on July 02, 2014, 11:43:39 AM Watched it. I wasn't sure who those 4 guests were, they do not sound very knowledgeable to me. The host had to point out bitcoin facts to those guests so they do not continue to embarrass themselves: "Printing Bitcoin in their backyard"? They really should do more research before they go on shows. :-\

Post by: Chef Ramsay on July 02, 2014, 08:42:33 PM Fox Business is where all the minor league talent gets their start over on the right wing leaning channel as well as where they park their libertarian leaning shows. FB has an audience and demographic similar to CNBC (the market channel) but more libertarianish on most things. Glad they're talking about it and getting the wheels turning in those watchers' minds.

They really should do more research before they go on shows. :-\ This is what it's always like when you have news journalists talking about technology, my favourite thing is particularly with Bitcoin when they don't understand something and they bring in these 'experts' who know even less than they do and have basically spent five seconds looking at the first page of google which is of course usually flooded with negative articles that don't know what they're talking about either. I have to say though, I'm getting disturbed by the positiveness coming from Fox on Bitcoin, first Glenn Beck of all people and now this guy, I'd like to point out as well that he was one of the people who were in total denial about what was going on in 2008 - 2009. |
