How about this for a big dig at CNBC. Englewood Cliffs New Jersey is the location of CNBC's H.Q.

Big Dig? There were 3 major ones, Stuart.

"Sleepy Englewood Cliffs"
"Kinda cold out here"
"Peacock hunting season"

OK, so within the first hour you send a reporter to wheel out a series of broadcast media in-joke references on a uncomfortable looking two-way. That must have cracked up the troops around the conference table last Friday morning when planning the running order.

Works on paper - but did it work on screen. Given that the target audience is not your Wall Street red braces bridage, but your average Joe, how many would have spotted those refs about CNBC?

Lots of assorted photos from the set here

From what I've seen of the channel, I'd say it has a classier look to it than the Fox News Channel - with more subtle and cleaner use of colours on graphics and sets.

Well, duh! You'd have to go along way to find something less subtle and less classy than Fox News!

The graphics look errrm... Judge for yourself.

Not bad, actually. Like Bloomberg, but classier.

Classy? More like something from the early 90's. Bloomberg is straight to the point and does the job.

Not classy, nor is it like Bloomberg.

Here's a couple of caps of Rebecca Gomez from the FBN show Happy Hour. Shows what the graphics look like a bit clearer.

Look what's happening in Australia. Wonder if Sky has similar plans for the UK?

Sky to launch Australia's first business channel
By Sean Rubinsztein-Dunlop

Foxtel, Sky News and Austar have announced a deal to start running Australia's first 24-hour TV business news channel early next year.

In a joint statement, the media outlets say they have agreed the Sky News Business Channel will run at least 16 hours a day of Australian-made programming.

They say the other third of its content will comprise programming from part owner News Corporation's Fox Business Network in the US and its BSkyB Business News service from the UK.

Content from the Reuters news service will augment Sky Business's international coverage.

Foxtel, Sky News and Austar say the channel will also build on Sky's collaboration with the business journalists from News Corp's The Australian newspaper.

Rupert Murdoch's News Corp owns one-third of Sky. Equal parts are owned by Seven Media and PBL Media, which also owns Channel Nine.

Sky News Business will be run from bureaus in Sydney and Melbourne.
