Kenneth Bernard Prewitt (December 14, 1946 — April 11, 2015) was an American radio news anchor who reported on economic news for CBS, ABC, and Bloomberg Radio networks.[1] Together with Tom Keene, he co-anchored Bloomberg Radio's flagship program, Bloomberg Surveillance, from 2005 to 2013.[2] According to Bloomberg, he was seen as the authoritative voice through interviewing many Wall Street billionaires and the former Federal Reserve chairman. Prewitt died April 11, 2015 at his home in Manhattan, from complications caused by brain cancer. He had been on leave since receiving the diagnosis in 2013.
