Varney helped launch CNN’s business news team in 1980 and hosted many of their financial programs including Your Money, Business Day and Business Asia.

A graduate of the London School of Economics, Varney began his broadcast journalism career as a business anchor for KEMO-TV in San Francisco. On the controversial side of things, in 2013 Varney stirred the pot with his commentary on Pope Francis, who had criticized the wealth gap and denounced unfettered capitalism as a system which “rules rather than serves.” Varney stated, “I go to church to save my soul. It’s got nothing to do with my vote. Pope Francis has linked the two. He has offered direct criticism of a specific political system. He has characterized negatively that system. I think he wants to influence my politics.”
