Radford took to Instagram to announce the news, revealing the weekday show will air 12-2 p.m. ET.
“This is OUR chance to tell OUR stories; the stories of our generation, the moment we are collectively facing and of the future we hope to build together,” she captioned.
“We will get to tackle the news with a fresh, innovative perspective, focusing on the issues YOU care about and the policies that affect YOU. We will take a deep-dive into some of the stories that you’ll see me report on Today Show and Nightly News (ie. the increase in white supremacists running for office, the opioid epidemic ravaging our heartland) — and we will let them play out in longer form, while giving you a chance to discuss them.”
