Wall Street Journal
tech guru Walt Mossberg
has signed
up as a regular Thursday morning contributor on Fox Business Network (FBN),
the
Journal's sister News Corp.
organization. However, other prominent
Journal
reporters and editors
may
not follow him to the nine-month old network. The newspaper
is
locked into a 15-year deal with CNBC that doesn't expire until 2012,
meaning Mossberg, and other contributors, must stick to breaking news or
non-business news while on FBN. Mossberg
was
a regular CNBC contributor for 10 years.
