NY Times: CNBC says it won't hire Dobbs

December 02, 2009 9:14 am ET by MMFA Staff

From a December 2 New York Times blog post:

Lou Dobbs won't be talking to CNBC again anytime soon.

The business news network said Tuesday evening that it was no longer talking to Mr. Dobbs, the former CNN anchor, about a potential job.

The statement came after The New York Times reported on Tuesday morning that Mr. Dobbs had "held talks with the business news network CNBC in recent weeks." A network spokesman did not deny the report about the talks, but said: "We are not in talks or negotiating with Lou Dobbs. He is not going to work for CNBC."
