Vargas is filling in for anchor Marni Hughes, whose new daytime program “NewsNation Live with Marni Hughes” debuts Monday, Sept. 19.
“Elizabeth Vargas is a tremendous journalist who brings a wealth of knowledge and insight to every role she undertakes,” Michael Corn, NewsNation president of news, said (h/t TV Newser).
