Ryan Chittum of Columbia Journalism Review argues that recent advertising from Fox Business Network arguing that its anchor Neil Cavuto is the most important journalist in business news is a bit of a stretch.
“News Corp. isn’t known for its understatement (except when it comes to its role in hacking and bribing people, mind you) or its modesty.

“But, you ask, what about Lou Dobbs? Good question. Fox Business gives him his own half-page ad in today’s Journal:
