Regan aims her Fox Business show to have perspective

Capital New York spoke with Fox Business Network anchor Trish Regan about her new show, which debuts Monday.

Here is an excerpt:

CAPITAL: If you had to sum up your new show “The Intelligence Report with Trish Regan,” (which debuts June 1) what would you say the vision is? What can viewers expect?
REGAN: It is a show that covers everything happening in the world right now, and it is covering it from a U.S. economic and business perspective. My goal is to arm viewers not just with the news and information itself, but to arm them with the perspective. I will be providing them with a range of viewpoints, including my own, so they can understand the challenges our country faces right now.
CAPITAL: When you think of your core viewership, the people tuning in, do you want it to be people on Wall Street? Regular people at home?
