Fox Business Morning is an early morning business newscast which airs on the Fox Business Network from 5-7am Eastern Time. Anchored by Jenna Lee and Connell McShane, it was the first show to be aired on the network when it launched October 15, 2007. Nicole Petallides served as Jenna Lee's original co-anchor before she was replaced with McShane on May 12, 2008.

Originally airing as a one-hour program, Fox Business Morning expanded to two hours on May 12, 2008. The second hour of this program replaced the first hour of Money for Breakfast, which in turn, contracted to two hours. Fox Business Morning once again contracted to 1 hour on October 5, 2009 to make way for Imus in the Morning.

Format

This early morning program begins with a look at the overnight headlines, along with a review of the Asian stock markets and a look at ongoing trading on the European markets from Ashley Webster, who is the network's London-based correspondent and overseas markets editor. In addition, this program also previews the U.S. business day, including that day's corporate and economic diaries.
