Why is the Bloomberg multiscreen format called unique? Whats it got that CNBC (or many other channels) don't have?

An out-dates referrence, as others now have such screens. However, Bloomberg was teh first to use such a detailed screen, if I'm not mistaken.
The cool thing about it was that back about a decade ago, it displayed more than news and stock market info, but had horoscopes, sports stats and standings, trivia, and even the previous night's Letterman Top Ten List. They eliminated these for the more business-oriented audience.--CRiyl 08:23, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
The multiframe screen format is called the 'J-Frame' (I am a Bloomberg employee) and I don't think any other network had anything similar (most other nets used multiple crawls... CNBC for example has one crawl at top and two at bottom). At any rate it has been phased out on our English-language channels.202.82.171.186 (talk) 06:40, 2 January 2008 (UTC)factual edit202.82.171.186 (talk) 06:46, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Links to "list of channels available on..." articles

Bloomberg is an international channel NOT a channel unique to the US. A list of all channels on two platforms that take a feed of the channel in the US are therefore irrelevant to the article.

AS AFAICT Wikipedia is an international effort as opposed to a US one, the logical conclusion of the include it argument is to have a list of "list of channels available on..." which will include cable, satellite, DTT, ands IPTV platforms all over the world. Logically each channel should also have a link to each of these lists of other channels on platforms that it is available in.

Perhaps a more satisfactory approach might to be a category "Channels on..."? Pit-yacker 00:17, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

Is it worth mentioning Bloomberg may have competetion mainly from CNBC. (But I don't know anything about it, so I may be wrong) Cs92 14 November 2006


[edit] = Channel Listings on an Encyclopedia?

Channels are rearranged on various cable and sattelite systems around world constantly. Why even list them here? This is not TV Guide, it's an encyclopedia. Piperdown 02:32, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 80% of text is about a "Controversy"

Articles should not exist solely for the purpose of axe grinding. Piperdown 02:32, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
