			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;<em>Even if nothing happened in the financial markets that day there would still be a 60 page edition of The Australian Financial Review published the next day.&#8221;</em> That was the view shared by one of my first lecturers in financial planning back in 2000. (I wish I could remember which lecturer so I could give him credit.)</p>
<p>Time proved that to be correct and over the past nine years I have progressively read less and less of the mass media and more specialist publications. Most of what is published in the mass media makes me quesy or irate &#8211; often both simultaneously. Too frequently I feel that mass media financial articles confuse the issue and are too superficial by not considering the real, valid depth.</p>
<p>I could rant on this topic for a long time, but I won&#8217;t. Have some fun instead and <a target="_blank" href="http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=220252&amp;title=cnbc-financial-advice">watch this enlightening video </a>by Jon Stewart of <a target="_blank" href="http://www.thedailyshow.com">The Daily Show</a>in the USA. Stewart takes the so called experts of CNBC, the business show, to task over their forecasts and soft approach on CEOs.</p>
