CNN is set to debut a new late evening show hosted by Elex Michaelson next week, with high-profile guests scheduled for the first week.
The Story Is with Elex Michaelson will debut on Monday evening. The show is set to air from 12-2 AM ET.
“The Story Is will waste no time in bringing together key figures from across the political spectrum to have fair, respectful and inclusive conversations on the issues that are important to our viewers all over the world,” said Michaelson. “By going beyond the predictable talking points, The Story Is will become a surefire source for news that breaks through, often with hope, joy and humor. I’m thrilled to bring this show to the world from LA!”
Included in the first week will be Pete Buttigieg, Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-CA) and Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA).
Additionally, a panel will include Gloria Allred and Larry Elder, while another will feature Jennifer Horn and Bryan Tyler Cohen.
Michaelson joined CNN in September after previously working at FOX 11 in Los Angeles. The new program will be based in Los Angeles and will cover “stories that audiences care about across sport, health, technology, entertainment and more,” according to the network.
