Paul Bedard of US News & World Report writes Wednesday that radio show host Don Imus may be leaving his early-morning slot on Fox Business Network.
Bedard writes, Cavuto “also said that Imus ‘is unconventional. But to the folks who say, ‘What does he bring to business?’ I say he’s pretty savvy on the business stuff and he talks to a lot of people on this stuff and he cuts to the chase, which is what our Fox mantra is all about.’
“At Fox, Imus had a fancy studio and remained popular but hasn’t been as big of a draw for the show that follows his, Varney & Co. starting at 9:20 a.m., that was hoped for. According to some reports, Stuart Varney has even had bigger audiences than Imus.
“The reconsideration of Imus’s show comes as the network appears to be on the verge of profitability, according to industry sources. A Fox Business spokeswoman said ‘we cannot confirm’ those reports.”
