Claman says former CNBC co-workers call her every day
February 25, 2008
In an interview in Boston magazine, Fox Business Network anchor Liz Claman says her former co-workers at CNBC call her every day about coming to work at the rival.
Here is an excerpt:
BD: It must be exciting for you to be in on the ground floor of this network.
LC: There’s no glory in saying yes to a place that’s already up and running and number one. The gutsy people are ready to take a chance when they can’t see around the corner. When I got hired, I didn’t know what show I’d be doing. I didn’t know with whom I’d be working. The first thing I said was, ‘Do you want me to get Warren Buffett?’ and they said ‘Sure.’ The glory belongs to those who take the chances in life. I’ve always felt there’s no such thing as a wrong career move. Never. You always learn something wherever you go. Always.
BD: Do you think any of your old coworkers at CNBC will be interested in moving over?
LC: I know they are. I get calls every day. It was funny, when I quit CNBC a lot of the talent kept calling me and saying ‘Are you going? It would be so much easier for me to go if I knew you were going too.’ Well, that’s not how I would ever live my life. That’s my DNA makeup. I’ve always tried to take the road less traveled. Everyone’s scared. Ninety-nine percent of the world is terrified of the unknown. I’m in the one percent that says bring it on.
