OBAMA SNUBS NEIL CAVUTO. SAYS 'YOUR WORLD' NOT A FINANCIAL SHOW!


Neil Cavuto announced that he's being snubbed by the Obama White House because his Your World with Neil Cavuto "is not a financial show." "Who knew that all of this time I thought it was because they didn't like me," Cavuto said, tongue-in-cheek, during his opening monologue today.

"From Wall Street to Main Street, Your World is more than just facts and figures," it says on the show's website header. Hmm, sounds like a financial show to me, and since Mr. Cavuto is the top dog at Fox Business, seems to me that there are two reasons why the Obama administration is refusing to appear to push their financial regulatory agenda (like they're doing on all other major networks):

1) Cavuto leans to the right of the political spectrum, and

2) Cavuto is a very tough interviewer

"I don't know of any other show that's devoted as much time to everything from the bailouts on Wall Street, to all of the rescues from Wall Street, and all the taxes, and all of the regulations, and all of the czars that came with them," Cavuto explained while noting that his program happens to be the top-rated business program over any other competitor at Bloomberg, CNBC, MSNBC, and CNN, combined!

Your World with Neil Cavuto has been the #1 business program in it's time slot for 88 straight months, so it seems more than a little disingenuous for the Obama Administration to say, as they did today to Cavuto's producer, that Larry Summers wouldn't appear on the show because it wasn't a financial show.

I happen to watch "Cavuto" most days, and I can attest, unequivocally, that it is a financial program, Mr. President, and you, or someone in your Cabinet, had better appear on Mr. Cavuto's program or you will have alienated one of the most powerful voices in the business community.

You don't want that, do you?

From Main Street to Wall Street, 'Your World' is more than just facts and figures. We get to the heart of what matters to
