    NY Post rips into Bartiromo. "Money Honey" --> "Bank Skank"

    Maria is done. She just hasn't figured it out yet. Erin does research. Maria reads a teleprompter. Why do you think Cramer's Stop Trading was moved to 2:45pm? because Erin was the one with enough street sense to carry on a conversation with him.
