<!-- Unsourced image removed: [[Image:cabinent.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Secretary of State Alexander Haig, President Ronald Reagan, Vice President George Bush, Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger with members of Reagan's cabinet.]] -->
*Because of the subscriber nature of local public television stations, local presentation of the ''World Business Review'' is scheduled by individual stations and air times would vary by market. By December 4, 1996, initial broadcasts of that first episode had reached 42,491,400 potential households in eighteen markets including New York, Chicago, Washington DC, Miami and as part of Knowledge TV, a part of Jones Intercable.
* In January 1998, episode #420 heralded the first ''On Location'' Special of ''World Business Review''. This format consists entirely of field reports shot onsite around the country. This format allowed a more visually impactful program and ultimately led to the formation of a dedicated group of ''On Location'' episodes beginning in July 2001.
* In 1999, ''Health Journal Television'' was launched dedicated to examining solutions and technologies in the medical and health care industries.
* May and June 2000, ''World Business Review'' episode 711B marked the first major transition in Host duties as Alexander M. Haig Secretary of State for Reagan 1980 to 1981) assumes the post of Moderator from the retiring Caspar Weinberger.
* In November 2001, the ''World Business Review'' studio moved to a South Florida affiliate of NBC where between 5 and ten episodes were taped. At the beginning of 2002, taping was moved again to WXEL in Boynton Beach, Florida.
* In 2003, airing times nationwide were consolidated into one consistent slot coast to coast. This was accomplished with the move from public television to CNBC as paid programming. The program airs without commercial interruption, allowing the shows producers to maintain editorial control of both topics and content.
* During the autumn of 2006, while hosts transitioned from Haig to Schwarzkopf, the studio was moved temporarily to accommodate both the new and tenured hosts schedules during the overlap of taping.
