Eric Bolling Named Co-Host of FBN’s Happy Hour
Fox Business Network has finally found a home for Eric Bolling, who has been underutilized since signing on with Ailes et al.
He will be broadcasting daily from the Bull and Bear, which presumably has a parking space large enough for his Maybach:
Eric Bolling will join Cody Willard and Rebecca Diamond as co-host of FOX Business Network’s (FBN) Happy Hour, announced Kevin Magee, Executive Vice President, FOX News.
Happy Hour (5PM-6PM ET) is a daily business news program set inside the Bull & Bear bar at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City that provides irreverent banter on the day’s market activity in a lively open forum atmosphere.
In making the announcement, Magee said, “Eric’s knowledge of the markets and energy issues has been instrumental to us during this historic time in our nation’s economic history. I am pleased he’ll now take on a new role at FBN as co-host on Happy Hour.”
Bolling added, “Happy Hour is a dynamic show that takes the headlines and market reactions and turns them into useful and intelligent information. I am excited to take on this new role as co-host.”
Since joining FBN in March 2008, Bolling has served as a contributor providing daily commentary to Money for Breakfast, America’s Nightly Scoreboard and Happy Hour, among other programming. Bolling is also an independent trader based out of the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) specializing in trading commodities such as crude oil, gold, and agricultural commodities.
Prior to this, Bolling served as a CNBC contributor for two years, where he was a panelist on Fast Money. He also was the recipient of the Maybach Man of the Year award at the Trader Monthly Awards in January 2007.
Lets hope Eric has some pull with the bookers, tapping his rolodex would bring a diverse and talented group to the 5pm show.
