History
Amid the lead-up to the 2022 midterm elections and Don Lemon's move to CNN This Morning, CNN announced in September 2022 that Laura Coates and Alisyn Camerota would co-anchor the 10 p.m.–midnight ET block of CNN Tonight beginning in October 2022, replacing Don Lemon Tonight. In January 2023, Camerota and Coates were named as interim hosts of the 10 and 11 p.m. hours. Coates would depart CNN Tonight in March 2023, and was subsequently promoted to chief legal analyst in May 2023.
On August 14, 2023, CNN announced that Coates would return to the 11 p.m. hour to host a new program, Laura Coates Live, which premiered on October 16, 2023.
