According to the page, Fox Business is on channel 223 on Dish Network, but as a Dish Network subscriber, as of this date, channel 223 is a home shopping channel. I cannot find FBN anywhere on Dish. ...The Foot
"# Roger Ailes, Fox News Channel president and Fox TV Stations Group chairman, held a staff meeting the Friday before the launch to prepare reporters, anchors, producers and others for the Monday launch. From the newsroom, Ailes talked about how the press covered the launch of FNC 11 years ago. The Fox executive dismissed negative comments from doubters by noting FNC grew to become the number one news channel, less than six years after launch. He told the staffers to focus on integrity, attitude, teamwork and excellence in everything they do"
... this isn't cited, and probably came from the inside.
I have contacted Janet Alshouse the VP in charge on international distribution of FOX News and FOX Business Network, who advises that contrary to what the Australian newspaper article says, no deal has been done for Australia yet or for the UK. FBN will not be offered internationally until the first quarter of 2008, when Foxtel in Australia and Sky in the UK will be strong possible customers to take carriage. If anyone wants proof of this please email me on stuart.fanning@gmail.com Stuartfanning
Missing Sections
The network has been on for over 24 hours. Where's the "Criticism" and "Controversies" sections? patsw 23:52, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
what criticism? I don't know of any major things the network has done "wrong" for a network that's been on, what, five days? The network needs time to fill itsself out first. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.174.83.150 (talk) 19:22, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
- Possibly this? [1] [2] - Mike Beckham 03:16, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
That's all they have? Infomercials to whine about? The Fox Haters are really digging themselves into a hole with this. --4.239.60.84 22:28, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Olbermann critique
Criticism is fine, but to count Olbermann's windmill-tilting among is it akin to using Limbaugh quotes to discuss criticism of CNN. --Mhking 16:58, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
Unless you have a valid criticism of Olbermanns 'windmill-tilting', what was the point of your comment ? 81.130.211.218 (talk) 20:37, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
More Like a NewsChannel?
Is it just me or does FBN seem more news based than business based? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.164.68.213 (talk) 17:45, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah it's much more broad compared to CNBC or Bloomberg Television, but I guess that's how you attract "Main Street" Vik —Preceding comment was added at 18:13, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
- Or given FBN's poor ratings, maybe it's not. 71.203.209.0 17:44, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
