Bloomberg isn't the only one. There seem to be several hours of programming everyday related to the stockmarket. Shouldn't VOA be promoting the US internationally? I don't get it. I will say that most of the programming is good. It's just the hours of mindless stockmarket talk that I don't get. The stockmarket TV on VOA isn't an overview or a summary of the day but rather a random sample of any old hour of chatting on the channel.
I wonder if there is corruption in showing Bloomberg TV? In a way Bloomberg gets to use the US Govt system to get its name out. Thoughts?

Sorry VOA cuts out all adverts when it runs shows from American TV. I feel running some shows is an advertisement in itself. I get the bloomberg channel where I live but I also get some more of it through VOA

VOA is run by the US government

Should a government station promote Bloomberg TV? Why? Shouldn't they be promoting the US? Bloomberg covers investments in other countries. It's not just about America. Is Bloomberg a Republican?

Anybody that claims to be the Voice of America....ISN'T! besides, thats the mind set that big money rich people have....."we own everything...so we'll tell you that we're in charge"
But to answer your question, this country is focused on Money....that all many people care about any more...so T.V. reflects that....sorry for my bitter answer...but it's true

Allow any advertisement to appear during your program brings big money
