Cavuto: Happy, but never satisfied

Mike Reynolds of Multichannel News interviews Fox Business Network‘s Neil Cavuto on the one-year anniversary of the network’s launch.

Here is an excerpt:

Neil CavutoMCN: With FBN’s first-year anniversary approaching, are you pleased with the network’s progress in terms of guests, breaking news, analysis?

NC: Yeah. I always want to tinker. I always want to see what we could do better, what story could we have covered more thoroughly. That’s something in everybody’s DNA here; we’re never really satisfied. But I think what we are clearly seeing is people finding us and liking us. And let’s face it: We’re a tough find on a lot of digital-cable systems. We’re way up there on the channel spectrum.

MCN: Is there any sense that your stories are going into a vacuum?Â

NC: I’ve heard this argument before. We utilize the full Fox Business talent roster, even on the shows that I do on Fox News Channel.
