Fox Business Network

Fox News II The Fox Business Network is a cable channel dedicated to business and financial market news.[1] The impetus for the network's creation was Rupert Murdoch's purchase of the Wall Street Journal. The network was meant to be a rival to NBC's CNBC. Its two "star" pundits were Andrew Napolitano and John Stossel. The network initially attracted whopping 6,300 viewers per day. Compare CNBC's 283,000 per day.[2] To be fair, it does appear to be enjoying a greater degree of success now than it did in the past, having now employed pundits with name recognition like Napolitano, Stossel, and Lou Dobbs. Beforehand, Neil Cavuto was its only real "star."
