    Wii Waterski: Live from Electronic Arts

    Okay so maybe it's not exactly something Edward R. Murrow would have done but I figured I'd understand Electronic Arts' products better if I used them myself vs. pontificating about them or only going by what gamer-bloggers say. So, I joined EA's Jen Riley (she's Canadian but screams California) in a Wii Waterski session.  Wii Sports Active is getting more and more popular with dozens of games and training sessions. Jen convinced me to do Wii Waterskiing LIVE on Fox Business.  We were in EA's auditorium with my crew and 2 dozen EA gamers and employees watching. (laughing?) Join the fun, the clip is below and, ... read more

The way he describes it to Fox Business is that he went to Texas to go check in on his investment in Burlington Northern and was so impressed by the presentation CEO Matt Rose and his team made that he sat down with Matt and said, "How 'bout I buy the entire company?"

They all say the same thing: If the U.S. is to stay competitive, we've got to keep open the channels that funnel skilled foreign workers here through the H1-B visa program.  Same actually goes for Wall Street. If they can't find American workers for big jobs in finance and I.T., they jump to hire smart, skilled foreign workers who can kick major tail in these gigs. Guess what? Not anymore. There's a ... read more

    Former NBC Chief to FBN: no IPO for NBC

    Former NBC Chairman and CEO Bob Wright stopped by our studios in midtown Manhattan today to tackle two big subjects: 1) fighting to get Autism coverage shoe-horned into universal healthcare bills and 2) to talk about whether now is really the optimum time to sell all or a portion of NBC, the once super-stellar, number one television network. I'll get to his efforts for Autism in a moment but first to NBC. My biggest question: aren't you supposed to "sell high"??? If GE gives operating control to Comcast for a chunk of money ... read more

    How One Airline is Hiring AND Making $$

    Let's cut right to the chase. It's HAWAIIAN AIRLINES. They're hiring. They're growing. AND their stock price is way off the floor. Not bad for a company in an industry that's been down for the count for the past several years. President and CEO Mark Dunkerley came on Countdown to the Closing Bell today for a First on Fox Business interview and talked about how they're bucking the trend.  I don't care what business you're in, you should listen to *how* he's managed to tune out all the negative economic noise and ... read more
