Kate Snow Resigns as ‘NBC Nightly News’ Anchor: What’s Next for the Network?

In a surprising move, award-winning journalist Kate Snow has decided to step down from her role as anchor of the Sunday edition of “NBC Nightly News” to focus more on her responsibilities as cohost of the extremely popular afternoon show “NBC News Daily.” This decision comes after nearly a decade in the Sunday anchor role, which Snow has held since September 2015. Snow will still make appearances on ‘Today,’ ‘NBC Nightly News,’ and other NBC programs as the network’s senior national correspondent. Snow’s final broadcast as anchor of ‘NBC Nightly News’ will be on Sunday, Feb. 25, after which the network plans to use rotating anchors until a permanent replacement is announced in the coming weeks. The transition of the next anchor is highly anticipated, as viewers wonder who will take on such a prestigious role. In 2022, Snow was named as a coanchor of ‘NBC News Daily,’ a move that quickly propelled the program to become the number one afternoon news show. Broadcasting for four hours every Monday through Friday, Snow and coanchor Zinhle Essamuah deliver top headlines, breaking news, and consumer-centric segments from 2-4 p.m. Eastern. Snow’s impressive career includes anchoring the weekend edition of ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ for six years before joining NBC News in 2010. She also served as a White House correspondent for ABC News and a congressional correspondent for CNN, solidifying her reputation as a respected and experienced journalist. Stay tuned for updates on the transition of the ‘NBC Nightly News’ anchor position and the exciting developments to come in the world of news broadcasting. Who will be the new face of Sunday nights on NBC? Only time will tell.
