Morning Call was an American TV business program on CNBC, aired from 10AM to 12 noon ET weekdays. Previous programs shown in the same time slot were The Money Wheel with Ted David and Martha MacCallum and Market Watch.
Morning Call, which premiered as Midday Call on 2002-02-04 (Video:[1]), offered a clear focus on real-time market coverage at the heart of the trading day.

[edit] About the program
On 2006-02-03, Ted David, who had co-anchored Morning Call with Liz Claman since 2003, left the program while being promoted to senior anchor at CNBC Business Radio. From 2006-02-06 to 2007-07-17, Claman was joined in the 10-11am hour by Mark Haines (who reported from the New York Stock Exchange), and in the 11am-noon hour by various anchors, including Dylan Ratigan (see anchor roster below).
On 2007-07-20, CNBC replaced the first hour of the two-hour program with an expanded Squawk on the Street, due in part to Claman's departure from the network. [1]. Dylan Ratigan and Trish Regan served as interim anchors for the program, which was completely revamped on 2007-07-23. In addition to the aforementioned 2007-07-23 revamp, the anchors were joined on set by a guest contributor, very similar to Squawk Box.
On 2007-08-08, the show was renamed -- and replaced -- by The Call. The name change to The Call on that date was due in part to avoid confusion with the early-morning Bloomberg Television program of the same name.

[edit] On Location
Occasionally, Morning Call was broadcast live on location, such as the NYMEX. One of these examples came on 2007-05-31, when this program was named Morning Call, Liz Claman anchored the entire 2-hour program from the NYMEX (along with Haines at the NYSE for the first hour and Ratigan at CNBC Global Headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, NJ for the second hour). She was joined on location at the NYMEX by Sharon Epperson on the day the weekly crude oil, gasoline, distillate, and natural gas inventories report were released by the EIA.
[edit] CNBC Europe
The second hour of Morning Call was not seen on CNBC Europe as the European network instead aired European Closing Bell at 1700 Central European Time. As 2007-07-19, this program (which was later renamed The Call, as mentioned above) is no longer broadcast on CNBC Europe.

[edit] First logo
Used from 2002-02-04 to 2002-03-28. The show was called Midday Call then.
[edit] Second logo
Used from 2002-04-01 to 2003-10-10. The "first" logo for "Morning Call".
[edit] Third logo

[edit] Fourth logo
Used from 2005-12-19 to 2007-08-07. The program logos for Morning Call and Closing Bell (used from 2005-12-19 to present) were very similar, as both programs used identical opening titles. The theme music for each program differed, however.
