rkolsen 1678 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 CNBC is set to almost totally remove European originated programming by carrying the full US schedule. The only program that is expected to stay is Squawk Box Europe which airs as the European counterpart of Squawk Box here in the USA. American based programming will now start at 9GMT. The Guardian reports that 15 people will loose their jobs and the Paris and Tokyo offices will be shuttered. CNBC plans on doing a live blog during the business day which would be similar to the BBC's Busines Live offering. I imagine CNBC US will now start to tailor more towards international audiences. Currently at 0900 BT here in the US Worldwide Exchange airs at 04000 ET. So will Worldwide Exchange continue in its place or will it be in place or will it be replaced with American based programming. http://www.a516digital.com/2015/11/cnbc-retreats-from-daytime-european.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkolsen 1678 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 Edit: According to The Guardian the extra two hours will be filled with US based programming. So essentially Squawk Box Europe will end, two hours will be filled with early morning CNBC US programming and then Squawk Box US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plnewsfan 9 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Maybe the return of US Wake Up Call? And could we see the end of Fallon weeknights here in Europe? I've sent a proposal of changes to them (http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1snrakf?new_post=true) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToriElectra 291 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 So CNBC Europe shows Jimmy Fallon? Interesting. I think that was inherited from the former NBC Super Channel/NBC Europe, which didn't do well and got turned into some German cable net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkolsen 1678 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Nightly News also airs on CNBC Europe. I wonder how this may effect future news gathering efforts for NBC News. CNBC reporters have in the past been used on air in times of breaking news before NBC can get a US crew on the scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
