Curt Menefee announced on Fox NFL Sunday that he will co-host Good Day New York weekdays alongside Rosanna Scotto beginning Tuesday, Jan. 16.
Menefee will keep his Fox NFL Sunday hosting duties and anchor Good Day New York Tuesday through Friday during the football season.
“I’ve been a news nerd my whole life,” Menefee told the New York Post, adding he consulted fellow Fox NFL Sunday co-host Michael Strahan about adding the second job. Strahan is a veteran of ABC’s Good Morning America.
Bianca Peters, who has been co-host of Good Day New York since the summer of 2021, will transition to co-host of Fox 5’s The Noon with Chris Welch and The Fox 5 News at 6 p.m.” with Natasha Verma.
This isn’t Menefee’s first stint at Fox 5 NY. He first arrived at the station in 1995 and worked for five years as a sports anchor.
“I’m beyond thrilled to be returning to FOX 5 as a member of the Good Day New York family, while also continuing my weekly hang with my brothers on FOX NFL Sunday,” he said. “And how cool is it that I get to share this homecoming with the legendary Rosanna Scotto? Way back in the day, my FOX journey began in the same New York studio sitting beside Rosanna on the 10 O’Clock News. This full circle moment is a dream come true. There’s no place like New York. No place. I can’t wait to get back to the energy of the city, the culture, the restaurants, the people, everything that makes it the greatest city in the world.”
“Wow! Welcome back @curtmenefee! Looking forward to working with you again,” Scotto tweeted.
