NewsNation Prime 2020
NewsNation Prime is a television news program broadcast on NewsNation, launching nationally on September 1, 2020. The show originates live from Chicago and draws upon the reporting capabilities of 110 television news operations across the United States, all managed by Nexstar Media Group. It was created to provide a contrast to opinion-driven programming found on CNN, MS-NOW, and Fox News Channel—networks that dominate cable news ratings in early 2020s.
The program airs weekends from 7 to 10 p.m. ET. A rebroadcast occurs the same night from 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. ET, accommodating viewers in the Pacific Time Zone during prime time hours. Content includes reporting from national correspondents and repackaged material from local Nexstar stations.
An hour-long version called NewsNation Tonight ran weeknights from 11 p.m. to midnight ET.
