CNBC Employee Communications
I wanted to let you all know that we will be expanding our signature
Business Day programming into Primetime on the East Coast and will be
adding an additional airing of "Mad Money with Jim Cramer" at 9 p.m.
ET/PT.
We will be introducing a new Business Day program at 7 p.m. ET sometime
in the Third Quarter. I will share additional details about this
program in the coming weeks.
As the Business News Leader, it is incumbent upon us to ensure that our
influential, out-of-home audience has access to our signature Business
Day programming throughout their business day from coast to coast.
I have spoken with Dennis Miller about these plans and he has let me
know that his strong preference is to leave his program immediately.
Therefore, the final episode of "Dennis Miller" will air this Friday,
May 13.
Dennis is an exceptionally talented comedian with an unmatched wit and
he and his team consistently delivered a very entertaining program. I
want to personally thank Dennis, Eddie Feldmann and their entire group.
We are all very proud of their accomplishments and wish them nothing
but the best for the future.
"Late Night with Conan O'Brien" will continue to re-air on the network
at 7 p.m. ET/PT until the launch of the above mentioned new program.
"The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch" will remain at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
CNBC is a trusted, real-time investor network and our viewers rely on
us for actionable information wrapped in the most compelling business
stories of the day. This announcement reinforces our commitment to
delivering on that expectation and our mission.
