Two months ago, Hoda Kotb announced that she was leaving Today in the new year. Today, she announced her last day will be January 10th.
So, who will be sitting in her chair next to Savanah Guthrie during the two hours of Todaty on January 13th? That person is Craig Melvin! He will continue to host the third hour with Al Roker, Dylan Dreyer, and Sheinelle Jones.
“We are beyond thrilled to have Craig step into the co-anchor chair,” Libby Leist, senior vice president of TODAY, said in a statement. “He’s been an integral and beloved part of our family. From breaking news coverage in the field, to presidential interviews, to multiple Olympics and Super Bowls, Craig’s shown he has the talent and the range to cover all that we do here at TODAY. And he does it without ever losing that Southern charm.”
NBC News also said they have not yet found someone to replace Hoda in the fourth hour. So, they will have different people trying out for the spot on Jenna & Friends.
Who do you think should get the job? I hope they go with a comedian.
Back to Melvin. I think he is the perfect choice for the job. What do you think?
