The Ticker: Velshi, Matthews, Shively…

> CNN’s chief business correspondent Ali Velshi traveled to Detroit and sat down with Ford CEO Alan Mulally just before Mulally went to Washington to testify at today’s hearing on the big three bailout plan. The interview will air tonight on “Campbell Brown: No Bias. No Bull” at 8pmET.

> Chris Matthews’ train ride to Washington Sunday has made Page Six — “An avowed Clinton lover who was sitting next to Matthews reports: ‘He was in business class wearing a red baseball hat that said Penn on the back, and the fat [bleep] fell asleep on the train and snored with his mouth open.'”

> Profiled in Louisville Magazine, FNC’s Caroline Shively talks about how she ended up getting a job with Fox News, her more memorable TV moments and how she likes to go “catfish noodling” when she heads back to Kentucky. Yes, I said catfish noodling.
