Maria Bartiromo’s New Fox Show To Debut Feb. 24
Maria Bartiromo’s new anchor position on Fox Business Network is set to be solidified Feb. 24 with the premiere of her new show, Opening Bell with Maria Bartiromo. The new show will air 9 to 11 a.m. business days, according to a press release from Fox.
The new show’s title is a play on the CNBC show, Closing Bell, which Bartiromo anchored for more than 10 years. She had been with rival network CNBC for 20 years when she announced in November that she’d be leaving and heading to Fox.
The longtime news anchor will also host a Sunday business show on Fox News Channel, according to Deadline.
Until then, Bartiromo continues to make appearances elsewhere on the Fox networks. She spoke on Varney & Co. on Tuesday to give some basic stock market advice, marking her first appearance on Fox Business Network.
And on Wednesday she made an appearance on The O’Reilly Factor, making much the same point. Talking about long-term growth and earnings, she told anchor Bill O’Reilly, “You’ve got to be invested in stocks.”
She ended her appearance with a quick note about the private sector and how it relates to overall economic growth. “Business can be a big part of the solution… Business should be working better with Washington in creating jobs,” she said.
