Fox Business Network announced Monday that it had signed former CNN personal finance editor Geri Willis to a multi-year deal. Terms were not disclosed.
In addition to providing commentary across Fox Business, Willis will also host a primetime weekend program titled “The Willis Report.” The program will focus on consumer and personal finance issues and will make its debut in the second quarter.
“I am thrilled to join the Fox Business Network team and look forward to creating a new show to help viewers understand how the week’s top economic developments affect their wallets,” said Willis in a statement.
While at CNN, Willis served as the personal finance editor for CNN Business News and hosted the weekly half hour “Your Bottom Line” program. Prior to CNN, Willis was the senior financial correspondent for Smart Money magazine.
A graduate of Columbia Business School where she was a Knight-Bagehot Fellow, Willis is the author of two business books, “The Smart Money Guide to Real Estate Investing” and “Home Rich.” She was also the winner of the Excellence in Retirement Savings Reporting award in 2001, which is bestowed by the American University School of Communication and the Investment Company Institute’s Education Foundation.
