Fox News business anchor Neil Cavuto is hosting his show from Detroit as part of the cable network’s tour of the country to celebrate its 10th anniversary, and in an interview with the Detroit Free Press, he recounted what it was like to leave CNBC for Fox in 1996.
“‘We look at the dark moments and assume they’re always going to stay dark. And I’m always reminded of just the opposite, that more often than not, American industry responds to these challenges and always comes up with something better,’ he says.
“‘And I think it’s going to happen again.’
“Cavuto, who also oversees business coverage for Fox News, has been with the network since 1996. Back then, the former CNBC anchor and contributor to NBC’s ‘Today’ show was joining a network that was a fledgling experiment.
“‘I had a lot of viewers and then suddenly went into the witness protection program, because Fox wasn’t carried anywhere,’ he says of those early days. ‘There were a couple of years there where I had no ratings, no viewers, nothing. I really began to think, I have some relatives who run delis, maybe that was in my future.'”
