What's your take on this:

For me, this was a very smart politician who could not stand the scrutiny. The CNBC interviewers are highly sophisticated, unlike most journalists, in finance and markets. Frank was subtly demogoging the issue of executive compensation, but his practical sounding "solutions" don't wash. Realizing that his evasions weren't working, he feigned that he felt disrespected, as he persisted in changing the subject. The interviewer was getting a bit rude, so this was Frank's out.
