Bullseye (CNBC TV series)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bullseye was a news and analysis program on CNBC aired at 6 PM ET weekdays from the last half of 2003 until Friday, March 11, 2005. Hosted by Dylan Ratigan, it covered breaking news stories from business to pop culture and offered guidance on personal finance with the help of CNBC reporter Steve Liesman and his economy charts drawn on "Easels". The program had music selected by a CNBC intern called Grecco.

One segment on the show was called Whine & Cheese, where Ratigan served wine and cheese to his guests and talked about the news in business and corporate governance.

On the last episode of the show, on the segment called Bullseye Perspective, Ratigan served as moderator of an economics debate between Lawrence Kudlow and Paul Krugman of the New York Times.

Frequent guests included CNBC anchor Rebecca Quick and brothers and stock traders Jon Najarian and Pete Najarian from Najarian Capital in Chicago, who also appear on the syndicated TV program First Business on various U.S. TV stations.

On another segment named Bullseye on America, CNBC reporters gave insight into the state of the U.S. economy.

The show was replaced by James Cramer's Mad Money on 2005-03-14.
