As the Overnight Host/Producer you will be part of the team that keeps viewers informed and engaged at all hours of the day! You’ll get the best of both worlds – hosting live, on-air coverage on some nights, and driving viewer engagement while supporting other hosts behind the scenes on others. This flexible role is ideal for a dynamic journalist who thrives both in front of the camera and behind the scenes. You’ll balance real-time coverage of what’s happening right now with forward-thinking content presentation and finding innovative ways to help viewers find the live events and latest updates they’re looking for.

We are a team of passionate journalists and content producers seamlessly moving between the biggest events and stories as they happen to keep our audience informed. LiveNOW is always raw, live and unfiltered, with limited commentary and no opinion.
