Only in America: fake Steve Jobs Dan Lyons banned from CNBC

January 15th, 2009

The news over Steve’s health is taking its toll. Now former fake Steve Jobs, Dan Lyons a technology columnist at Newsweek is apparently banned from CNBC for criticizing a CNBC reporter on air. While he might not have acted properly, I think he had a point.

Apparenlty CNBC reporter Jim Goldman kept repeating what Apple PR was saying to him, i.e. that there was nothing wrong with Steve’s health. But here’s the catch, he allegedly knew about Steve’s declining health for a week but failed to report on it. It does not make sense and Lyons said that CNBC might as well repeat Apple’s press releases. The PR spokeperson at Apple’s is apparently a former CNBC employee, adding to the drama. This is beginning to sound like a genuine saga. Only in America.
