NBC veteran Ali Vitali will become the new host of MSNBC’s “Way to Early” early next year. The 34-year-old Vitali will replace current host Jonathan Lemire, who is set to become a co-host on “Morning Joe,” the program that immediately follows “Way Too Early.”
Vitali will take over on January 6, 2025. The show airs at 5:00 a.m. ET, leading into “Morning Joe” at 6:00 a.m. Most recently, she’s served as a Capitol Hill correspondent for NBC, a company she first joined in 2012 as an intern.
Beyond this year’s election, she’s covered Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and the 2018 midterm elections for the network, as well as the 2020 presidential race.
