About 10 minutes [into the dinner] my sister texted me and said, "Maria, I just wanted to let you know that you're on TV live. You're front and center." I thought, 'Oh God, I'm right behind Donald Trump and in the camera shot. After that I stopped moving. I just sat there. It was funny. I was delighted that people noticed my white gloves. It was a white tie dinner, for the dais you had to be in white tie. If I can't channel my best Sophia Loren glamour for a white tie affair, when can I? I thought it was an excellent opportunity to wear the white gloves.

Maria BartiromoI've been able to stretch myself, covering policy, looking at tax reform, looking at the broader economy [being at Fox]. It's no longer [just] about the stock market. I'm having a ball. And, the glamor of TV also makes it fun.
