David Faber (CNBC)David Faber (journalist) – I have not much to say here but I feel like that this may be the correct title for this CNBC journalist, author of two books in the 2000s, and who is also the guest host for Jeopardy for this week. Pahiy (talk) 20:20, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Simply "journalist" is the usual convention for such disambiguations, I don't think I've ever seen their affiliation used unless perhaps there were multiple journalists with the same name — which, now that I think of it, if that were ever the case, they'd be disambiguated by birth year instead of affiliation.

Support per reasons above. Clear Looking Glass (talk) 00:40, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. The current disambiguation causes confusion, and unless the reader knows what organisation Faber is employed by, there is no indication that they have found the page they're looking for until they click on the link. Sean Stephens (talk) 04:20, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per nomination, Gus Polly, Clear Looking Glass and Sean Stephens. —Roman Spinner (talkcontribs) 06:15, 3 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support per naming conventions and WP:SNOW. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 00:21, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
