‘Wall Street Week’ Becomes Weekly TV Newsmagazine in Bloomberg Overhaul


Venerable business-news program "Wall Street Week' becomes a weekly newsmagazine focused on narrative storytelling under a Bloomberg overhaul

“When you go to streaming, it lives forever, and you need to have content that lasts for a long time.” Not only does a focus on the gyrations of the stock market make such a program less relevant over time, he adds, but many of the show’s viewers are “sophisticated investors” who can easily turn to financial-news sites for all kinds of statistical work-ups. The first episode of “Wall Street Week” in its new iteration will feature segments on the business challenges of higher education; a look at how New York restaurants operate; and a two-part story on Detroit and Ford Motor Co. Bloomberg has worked with public media in the past, syndicating “The David Rubenstein Show: Peer-to-Peer Conversation s.” The business-news giant began discussing such a prospect with GBH, the Boston affiliate of PBS, after it relaunched “Wall Street Week” in 2020.
