Post: Bartiromo shoots talk show pilot

The New York Post is reporting that CNBC anchor Maria Bartiromo has shot a pilot for an afternoon talk show that could take her away from business journalism.

The story, which did not have a byline, stated, “It is believed that the yet-untitled talk show, produced by NBC, will focus on ‘women’s empowerment,’ according to a report in Crain’s New York Business.

“Bartiromo anchors ‘The Wall Street Journal Report’ and co-anchors ‘Closing Bell,’ both on CNBC — but she has long been talked about as break-out personality who might one day move over to mainstream TV.

“The prospect of a new show is also a way to lock her in at NBC, if a proposed Fox News business channel is launched and tries to poach her.”
