CAREER MOVES

On August 9, The U.S. Sun revealed that Laura got the new job.

The weekend version of the show will now be broadcast live from New York City after it was hosted from Washington D.C. for the past two years.

“In her first months at NBC News, Laura has quickly made her mark with tireless reporting, sharp legal insight and powerful storytelling,” Libby Leist, Executive Vice President of Today said in a statement.

“Not only is she a terrific journalist, she’s also a wonderful colleague. We can’t wait to officially welcome her to Saturday TODAY.”

Laura joined NBC News back in January covering the Department of Justice and the Supreme Court while also providing analysis on legal issues, law enforcement and major breaking news stories.

‘NEW BEGINNINGS’

This week, weekday anchor Hoda Kotb, 59, teased that September meant “new beginnings” and that they were “celebrating one” on Friday’s episode.

Peter and Laura joined Hoda, Savannah Guthrie, 51, Craig Melvin, 44, and Al Roker, 69, to celebrate the former journalist’s new promotion.

Meteorologist Dylan Dreyer, 42, handed everyone a glass of champagne to celebrate the “new beginnings.”

Dylan handed Laura and Peter their drinks first and then gave them each separate gifts, which the weekend TV personalities seemed to appreciate.

Dylan then handed Al, Craig, Hoda, and Savannah a glass before running off camera.

When Dylan did, Hoda told everyone to “raise a glass” for a toast.

Everyone clinked glasses, cheering to what Craig proposed was “the new chapter.”
