FOX Business Network (FBN) has re-signed Charlie Gasparino to a
multi-year deal where he will continue his role as senior correspondent
for both FBN and FOX News Channel (FNC), announced Kevin Magee,
Executive Vice President of the network.
In making the announcement, Magee said, “Charlie thrives on holding Wall
Street accountable and his tenacious, hard-nosed approach to journalism
has made him one of the most respected reporters in the industry. We
look forward to his continued success in breaking market-moving news.”
Joining the company in February 2010, Gasparino provides on-air reports
for FBN and FNC on the latest news impacting Wall Street and the
financial markets. As senior correspondent, he has covered major
business stories including the collapse of MF Global and Knight Capital,
and has interviewed such financial heavyweights as JPMorgan Chase CEO
Jamie Dimon and Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman. In addition, he is
widely recognized for breaking influential news surrounding the Lehman
Brothers collapse, the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), and
restructure initiatives at Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, and Morgan
Stanley. He has also been credited for noteworthy scoops related to the
business of sports, namely news of pro-golfer Tiger Woods’ return to
golf following his extramarital affairs and the New York City Marathon’s
cancellation in 2012.
Gasparino commented, “Unlike many other financial news outlets, FBN
doesn’t play the Wall Street apology game, which gives me the freedom to
do my job.”
Prior to FBN, he served as an on-air editor for CNBC and before that, he
was senior writer for Newsweek magazine and a reporter at the
Wall Street Journal where his work was submitted for a Pulitzer
Prize in 2002. A recipient of numerous business journalism awards, he
has authored several best-selling financial books including the most
recent Bought and Paid For: The Unholy Alliance Between Barack Obama
and Wall Street.
