As for Bloomberg... not enough personality. CNNfn was led by Lou Dobbs, who is a protectionist, therefore not appealing to Biz. As for Bloomberg… not enough personality.

Bloomberg, CNN fn. It's not as if this financial news network light bulb mysteriously went off over somebody's head. But I do think Fox will succeed. Chris has a good point. Bloomberg, CNN fn.

My new theory is this: CNBC had EB profile Murdoch only to omit the FBN.. in hopes of "needling" Murdoch and attempting to sour their interest in EB. See? Two birds, one stone! ^ But, do you really think FBN would still want her after she purposely excluded Murdoch’s new biz venture on the mother ship?

You mean to tell me the "ever so luscious Erin Burnett" didn't mention how many newspapers Murdoch sold yesterday? Sheesh! Try this on for size: Maybe CNBC didn't want their talent advertising FBN on The Today Show. Plus, the network isn't even available yet! Further, CNBC talks about FBN/Murdoch quite often... just look for David Faber. So, its not like their totally ignoring them or anything. Wait!

Plus, wasn't CNNfn also competition to CNBC for viewers? From the point of it should be mentioned, that seems valid though. Well, let’s see…..
