Glenn Garvin of the Miami Herald writes about Fox Business Network anchor Lou Dobbs, whose new show debuted March 15.
“Fox Business executives expect to make major inroads next year when programs using the name and staffers of The Wall Street Journal (which now belongs to Fox Business’ corporate parent News Corp.) switch over to the network from CNBC. At least until then, however, Dobbs is performing for an audience of perhaps 110,000 people. It doesn’t bother him.
“‘This is not new for me,’ Dobbs says. ‘I was on the executive committee at CNN for years. I have significant management experience. I did a number of start-ups, including CNN itself and then CNNfn [a business-news network CNN operated from 1995 to 2004]. I love start-ups. The challenge of being an underdog doesn’t dissuade me. It’s all the more attractive to be a start-up and help build something. Building a business is the most exciting thing you can possibly do, in my opinion.'”
