Things got heated between CNBC anchors Andrew Ross Sorkin and Joe Kernen.

While discussing the stock market's recent rebound despite the national economic downturn, Kernen sparked a fiery rebuke from Sorkin, who accused his co-star of trying to dismiss his questions and downplay the impact of the coronavirus crisis."You panicked about the market, panicked about COVID, panicked about the ventilators, panicked about the PPE, panicked about ever going out again, panicked if we'd ever get back to normal," Kernen said.

"I wasn't arguing to go sell your stocks, Joseph. I was arguing about people's lives," Sorkin responded to Kernen's business-minded explanation."I am begging you to do the news, Joseph, please." The on-air verbal confrontation comes at a time in which the human cost of the pandemic, in the United States and across the world, has reached an unprecedented high. Meanwhile, the stock market has simultaneously rebounded from it's record-setting drop back in March, when the country first began lockdowns and there was uncertainty in the marketplace.-- which is over four times more cases than the country with the next-highest number of infections, Brazil, with 414,000 confirmed cases.
