NBC is promising “sharp, strong journalism” when Megyn Kelly returns with her new series next Sunday evening.
During Thursday’s episode of NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, the network released its first promo for Kelly’s upcoming Sunday night news program: Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly.
“Coming June 4, Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly. Sharp, strong journalism and the power of NBC News,” the promo states.
Kelly, who can be seen speaking with Dancing with the Stars co-host Erin Andrews at one point during the preview, says, “We have to tell this story.”
The former FOX News host has joined NBC News with a multi-year agreement that includes her anchoring an hourlong daytime program Monday through Friday, as well as the new, in-depth Sunday evening news show and contributions to the network’s larger political coverage, special events, and breaking news.
