Radio talk show host to co-host morning show on Fox Biz

Sam McManis of the Sacramento Bee reports Tuesday that California radio talk show host Tom Sullivan will be the co-host of a morning show on the upcoming Fox Business Network.

McManis wrote, “‘It’s all business, all the time, but it’s not going to be like CNBC,’ Sullivan said, announcing his intentions today on KFBK’s afternoon news.

“‘CNBC had it all to themselves. And they talked to the bankers and the brokers. But there’s 99 percent of the people out there who want to know what to do with their money, that don’t get the information. So we’re going to do a lot differently on the Fox Business Network.’

“The show, as yet unnamed, will air from 7 to 9 a.m. (Pacific) and will focus on the stock market and personal finance, he said.”
