“Our audience on NBC New Daily is growing fast,” she said, “and I have decided, after a lot of thought, to focus my attention Monday through Friday on that role. So, next Sunday will be my last Sunday anchoring Nightly News.“

Snow joined NBC News in 2010 and has won two Emmys during her tenure. The first award recognized her work in the 2016 Dateline episode “The Cosby Accusers Speak,” in which Snow sat down with 27 of Bill Cosby’s accusers for the first time. Her second Emmy came in 2018 for another Dateline sit-down in which she spoke with Andrea Constand, who previously had not spoken publicly about her accusations that led to Cosby’s conviction. In total, she’s been nominated for seven Emmy Awards.

Snow has anchored Sunday’s Nightly News since 2015 and called her time hosting a “privilege.” Her replacement for the Sunday slot has not yet been announced. The weekday version of the series is hosted by Lester Holt.
