In her welcome return, Erica Hill will anchor a New York-based, daily daytime news program, and also have a presence on CNN. The new HLN program will launch in Fall 2016. Details will be forthcoming, according to a press release.
“Erica was a catalyst during our evolution from Headline News to HLN, and now, as we return to our news roots, she’s the obvious addition to our first-class on-air team,” said Ken Jautz, EVP, CNN.
“I’m thrilled to come home,” said Hill. “The opportunity to reunite with Ken and the smart, talented HLN/CNN family was one I couldn’t refuse. I am so excited to be a part of this new chapter at HLN.”
I’m glad she’s coming back…I hope she does more than subsitute anchor work for CNN USA.
