CNBC was slammed by viewers Wednesday for asking candidates at the undercard debate whether they think the day after the Super Bowl should be a national holiday.
"Should day after the Super Bowl be a national holiday?" CNBC asked the candidates.
Almost immediately, the financial news channel was blasted by critics.
CNN political commentator Ben Ferguson called the question a sign of "insanity."
RedState's Erick Erickson echoed Ferguson's remark, writing on Twitter that the question was "pathetic."
Others also chimed in.
