Jenna Lee is rising star at Fox Business

MarketWatch.com columnist Jon Friedman profiled Jenna Lee, a rising talent at the Fox Business Network, about the challenges and rewards of television.

Friedman writes, “Plus, Lee is now a part of the Imus in the Morning simulcast — which started appearing last week on Fox Business — and she also delivers breaking news updates and pre-market reports. Separately, she handles updates on the Fox News Channel, too.

“From observing Lee since she started on Fox, I’ve noticed her growth. When she started, the lack of polish showed. Now, she looks and sounds like a poised, seasoned TV journalist, who is headed for a higher profile.

“TV news is glamorous life — to a point. Remember, Lee is usually sound asleep by 8:30 at night and is usually at her desk at Fox by 2:30 a.m.

“‘You’re going on the air at 5:00, whether you like it or not, so you have to be prepared,’ she said, spoken like a TV-news lifer.”
