Sorry for the duplicate. Anyway the website is up now. Just one page at present.

I like the logo, but for some reason it reminds me a bit of this.

The logo is fugly, although they've probably chosen to do it like that so it fits in with the Fox Business Network stuff (which they will show for something like a third of the day).

Here's the promotional video for this channel. Looks like it will have a January launch.

Not really new, just been added to the original, but looks like itll be an interesting biz channel.

Seems its definite launch date is January 7th.
