While I will still be doing some TV, I am delighted to be returning to my first love, radio, but this time not as a DJ but as a business news anchor.
I have been doing daily midday hits for WCBS in NY and Westwood One, but this allows me to establish a routine and be there for morning and afternoon drive... as the market opens and as it closes.
And working on ISDN allows me some great mobility. Who knows, maybe one day I'll be able to do my radio work from my next home: Charlotte, NC! Becoming a Carolinian is just a matter of time!

TED,
I WISH YOU LOTS OF LUCK. YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR AND EDGY WIT
WILL BE MISSED. LIZ IS TERRIFIC, BUT THE TWO OF YOU
HAD SOMETHING SPECIAL.

I don't believe this was as simple as was made out. I imagine that CNBC couldn't tolerate a professikonal who sometimes felt compelled to cut throuigh the fog and who didn't care much for an editorial line. Maybe his little dust up with Liz Claimin (sp?) had something to do with us.
Well its our (those of us who admired his style) loss first of all. In the longer term, it will be CNBC's loss - in my opinion.
Good luck Ted. You were the only one who came up to me to say goodbye when I was fired in 1996.
But you were really more than just a class act at CNBC- you were really the heart & soul of that station.
Thanks again-

We will miss you ted!! You will be able to do a lot more fishing now!! Don't mess with Liz!!
Morning Call and my mornings are not the same without you on the show. Although I miss your style and humor, I wish you all the best in your endeavors.
Ted,
You were the sole reporter on CNBC. Objective, fair and mature. Everyone else is trying to push a case or make the news. You reported the financial news honestly as it happened.
CNBC has lost me because of your leaving.
