[edit] About the show
On the Money wrapped up the day's news from the worlds of business and everyday life, took a closer look at the money in every story. On the Money literally followed the money through everything from breaking news to politics, to pop culture, and even sports.
[edit] History
On the Money premiered as "Hurricane Katrina: Crisis and Recovery" (which was hosted by Bill Griffeth) on 2005-08-29, replacing reruns of Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Five weeks later (2005-10-03), the show rechristened as On the Money. Dylan Ratigan, who previously hosted Bullseye (which ended its run on March 11 of that year), was given the hosting duties for the latter as well.
On 2006-07-10, On the Money debuted a new look, which included the program's new logo (as shown on the "logos" section below and on the upper right of this page), a new set, and new graphics. The entire graphics package was designed and redesigned in house at CNBC. Gary Keenan and by Felix Thoo of Creative Group, a post production house in NYC created some promotional work for a prior version of the graphics.
Ratigan, who was the original host of this program since 2005-10-03, left the show in December 2006 in preparation for his nightly hosting duties on Fast Money, which re-debuted as a nightly series on 2007-01-08. He was replaced on that same night by current host Melissa Francis.
