New Year's Day

Former Fox News Host Greta Van Susteren Joins MSNBC

Van Susteren will be joining the network to host a new program "For the Record with Greta"

Looks like Megyn Kelly started something of a trend. 

MSNBC announced Thursday that former Fox News Channel host Greta Van Susteren will be joining the network to host an hourlong program, "For the Record with Greta," which will air weeknights at 6 p.m. ET beginning Monday and will be based in Washington D.C.

“Greta is a true pro with a proven record of tough journalism,” said MSNBC President Phil Griffin. “Her broad range of experience and sharp news judgment will be of great value to MSNBC as we build on our momentum going into a new year and a new administration.”

A 25-year cable news veteran, Van Susteren joins MSNBC from Fox News Channel, where she hosted “On the Record with Greta Van Susteren” for 14 years. Previously, Van Susteren spent more than a decade at CNN, where she served as a legal analyst and co-host of “Burden of Proof” and hosted the news program “The Point.”

Van Susteren joins fellow former Fox News anchor Kelly, who announced earlier this week she was leaving Fox to host a daytime talk show and a weekend newsmagazine, as well as contribute to breaking news coverage.
