TVNewsLover 727 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Surprised this thread doesn’t already exist. Seems like they named a successor for Kate Snow. I like the pick. https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/hallie-jackson-anchor-sunday-nbc-nightly-news-1235947101/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman7885 37 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Interesting that Kate left to focus solely on News Now, but she was replaced by someone who also has a daily 2 hour show on News Now! Maybe they need to bring back John Seigenthaler…. Remember when he was ‘let go’ with budget cuts and replaced with Lester (who also anchored weekend today at that time) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTT 36 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Why do they need a different anchor for Sundays? Why can't the Saturday anchor work both days and have a couple of weekdays off like Mondays / Tuesdays or Thursdays / Fridays? Or find someone that can anchor on both Saturdays and Sundays while also contributing during the week without working everyday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not that anyone wouldn't be happy to anchor a national evening newscast) but they might be having trouble finding people who want to give up both days of their weekend. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Build the anchor bench twice as fast and it only takes those journalists out of the reporting mix one day per week as opposed to two.
