Broadcasting & Cable’s Marisa Guthrie talked to Fox Business Network senior vice president Kevin Magee about its launch and its competition with CNBC.

We haven’t had any catastrophic failures.
Q: What did your time at CNBC teach you about what to do and what not to do?
A: I learned a lot about business news there. I did not know a lot going in. I think there’s still a lot to learn.

We would much rather grow the smartest audience.
