Bloomberg a legit news source. Two things though:

  1. This BNN Bloomberg, which is Business News Network after getting acquired by Bloomberg. It's still a pretty factual news source (sometimes even more so than Bloomberg itself)
  2. This isn't news. It's a person (Phillip Colmar, partner at Global Strategist at MRB Partners) saying what they think. It's more like an opinion piece, improvised on live television, and most of those are indeed garbage even in otherwise respectable outlets.

I'm sure a large commercial financial news outlet is factual most of the time. And I'm sure a lot of the time that they aren't (even if through omission), it's serving their owners.
