Former CNBC anchor-reporter Maria Bartiromo is joining Fox Business Network as its Global Markets Editor.

She will anchor a daily program for that network, plus a weekly business-oriented show for Fox News Channel.

She begins at the network Feb. 1, with both programs set to launch by April, the network announced Wednesday.

Bartiromo left CNBC in November after 20 years. While there, she pioneered daily live reporting from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. She has won two News and Documentary Emmys.

Her high-profile work and photogenic looks earned her the nickname "Money Honey."

Before arriving at CNBC in 1993, she spent five years as a producer, writer and assignment editor for CNN Business News.

She is the author of several books, including "The Weekend That Changed Wall Street" and "The 10 Laws of Enduring Success."

At her new workplace, she reunites with Roger Ailes, Fox News chairman and CEO, who previously ran CNBC.

Ailes said he is "delighted to have her join me once again."

Fox Business Network, which signed on in October 2007, is available in more than 70 million homes.

What is the Monitor difference? Tackling the tough headlines – with humanity. Listening to sources – with respect. Seeing the story that others are missing by reporting what so often gets overlooked: the values that connect us. That’s Monitor reporting – news that changes how you see the world.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
