In early March 2007, Fox News Channel hired Ford as a "political contributor".<29>

In March 2008, he moved to MSNBC, the NBC cable news network as a news analyst, appearing as a panelist on David Gregory's Race for the White House. <30>

Ford has been appointed visiting professor of public policy at Vanderbilt University and teaches a class on American political leadership.<31> Also, Ford has joined the Merrill Lynch financial services firm as a vice chairman and senior policy advisor.





How's that vice chairmanship of Merrill Lynch working out for you, Mr. Harold Ford, Jr. ?
