Mike Jensen, the Emmy award-winning former Chief Financial Correspondent for NBC News, was named by TV Guide as the best economics/business correspondent in America.

In his 40 years as a journalist for NBC Nightly News, the Today Show and The New York Times, he has covered every major economic event of our times, reporting from the oil fields of the Persian Gulf, the trading rooms of Wall Street, and Alan Greenspan’s inner-sanctum at the Federal Reserve in Washington, DC.
