CNBC “Fast Money” anchor Dylan Ratigan has quit his post, the New York Post reports, citing unnamed sources familiar with the situation. Ratigan stepped down Thursday after reaching a tipping point in his frustration with Susan Krakower, CNBC’s VP of strategic programming and development, the Post says. Ratigan’s contract was set to expire next Wednesday, and sources say he already has spoken with other networks, the magazine adds. In light of the events and citing the economic climante, CNBC pulled Friday’s episode of “Fast Money” after announcing Ratigan’s departure, TVNewser reports.
