Alisyn Camerota: “Reunited and it feels so good! Yes, former Fox & Friends Weekend co-hosts Dave Briggs and Alisyn Camerota are back together in the morn–at CNN! To boot, they are on back-to-back shows: Dave is Christine Romans‘ new co-host on Early Start from 4-6 a.m. ET, and Aly is Chris Cuomo‘s co-anchor on New Day from 6-9 a.m. ET.
It was a strange, striking sight to see these Fox News co-anchors lovingly embrace each other on FNC’s main cable news rival as Aly teased her ND show on ES. Before she did, Dave introduced her saying, “Alright, let take a look what’s coming up on New Day. My former co-host, my mentor, my friend Alisyn Camerota joining us this morning!”* Gleefully smiling and applauding, Aly broke into song, singing, “Reunited and it feels so good!” Joining in with a big grin, Dave sang, “So good!”
Subsequently, Aly declared, “Dave, we’re super excited to welcome you here to CNN: It’s so great to have you as part of the extended New Day family.”
Giving Dave a playful dig, Aly declared, “I know that you are a fan of the fancy foot hosiery: So, at New Day, we wanted to get you off on the right foot. You’re a man who doesn’t shy await from a floral print. We have some fancy new socks here.” Displaying Dave’s three pairs of fun, colorful pairs fit for a President (George H.W. Bush), Aly said, “We know you like it: So, this should get you through the first week.”
Happy to have her friend back as a colleague, Aly concluded, “We’re thrilled to have you, Dave!”
Indeed, Aly: Great to see you back in the cable news morn indeed, Dave!
*Early Start – 02/23/17 (@ 5:47 a.m. ET).

I knew that he would never be happy after he left Fox and Friends Weekend. It was a dumb move. Clayton knows how good he has it.

Fox still has an opening on F&FW. Wonder if Dave inquired about it and was turned down.

I loved them too, but it’s kind of like seeing your ex dating someone else.

I hope Pete Hedgseth is made permanent for Fox and Friends Weekend. He is a good fit, and I like how he makes it his business to stick up for veterans.
Tucker seems to be doing well with his weeknight show.
Fox News may still have some more shuffling around and turnover with the new management. I haven’t seen Martha McCallum’s show on the first 100 days, and it looks like Shannon Bream and Melissa Francis are taking turns with Bill Hemmer on Americas Mewsroom during the time Martha is doing her special assignment.
