''Lou Dobbs Tonight'' is an American editorial commentary and discussion program hosted by Lou Dobbs, which previously broadcast on CNN and is currently broadcast on the Fox Business Network. The hour-long show aired live on evenings every weekday, and was replayed in the overnight/early morning hours. It covered the major news stories of the day with a focus on politics and economics. Field correspondents provided additional reporting and occasionally served as guest anchors. During Dobbs' tenure, notable politicians and economists were often guests on the show, facing his often pointed questioning. On November 11, 2009, Dobbs announced that he would be leaving CNN effective immediately. CNN anchor John King replaced the outgoing Dobbs beginning on March 22, 2010 with his new show ''John King, USA''. Dobbs was eventually hired by Fox Business Network, which re-launched ''Lou Dobbs Tonight'' in March 2011.〔(Fox Business Officially Slates ‘Lou Dobbs Tonight’ ), TVNewser, 3 March 2011〕 ==History== ''Lou Dobbs Tonight'' began with the name ''Moneyline'' with the premiere of CNN, and was CNN's main financial show for over 20 years, for a large portion of those years airing on CNN International as well. In late 1997 Dobbs hired former ABC News and NBC News Executive Producer David Bohrman to turn the program into a more general evening newscast, which would be called "The Moneyline NewsHour." The program was half financially focused, and half general news. It was the first regular program at CNN to have its main control room outside of Atlanta. As the show moved more towards general news and economic and political commentary, it was renamed ''Lou Dobbs Moneyline'' and then ''Lou Dobbs Tonight''. The show was among CNN's most watched.〔Nielsen Media Research, June 2008. http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/original/2Q%20'08%20FINAL%20competitive%20P2%20Adobe%20(2).pdf%20-%20Adobe%20Acrobat%20Professional1.pdf〕 On November 4, 2006, a taped weekend edition of ''Lou Dobbs Tonight'', entitled ''Lou Dobbs this Week'', began airing. The weekend show, which aired every Saturday and Sunday night, discussed a variety of heated issues from the past week and the week ahead. The weekend show has since been canceled. On November 11, 2009, Lou Dobbs left the network, telling viewers that the night's episode of ''Lou Dobbs Tonight'' was his last and that "some leaders in media, politics and business have been urging me to go beyond the role here at CNN". Although he had a contract with CNN until the end of 2011, CNN agreed to release him early.〔 〕 After his resignation, the show was temporarily replaced by ''CNN Tonight'', a news program hosted by John Roberts and later Erica Hill which featured reports filed by reporters who had filed reports for Lou Dobbs' program. On January 15, 2010, ''CNN Tonight'' was displaced by ''The Situation Room'' in a scheduling shift as a result of the premiere of ''Rick's List''. John King's new program, ''John King, USA'' debuted in Lou Dobbs' timeslot on March 22, 2010. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lou Dobbs Tonight」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
