Fox Business takes out ad on CNBC

Fox Business Network has placed an advertisement on CNBC, reports A.J. Katz of TVNewser.com

Katz reports, “The network has purchased spots on CNBC, via local cable news inventory, trumpeting Maria Bartiromo‘s breaking news coverage from the Future Investment Conference in Saudi Arabia last week.

“CNBC has not purchased spots on FBN touting Andrew Ross Sorkin’s Saudi Arabia coverage, as far as we know.

“Fox has a history of poking its cable news competition on the advertising front. For years, the network advertised on billboards outside of the old MSNBC headquarters in Secaucus, NJ.”
