On Patrol host leaves news show; Why is Dan Abrams leaving NewsNation?

The primetime lineup on the NewsNation network will look a lot different moving forward.

Dan Abrams, host of the “Dan Abrams Live” newscast, signed off last week from the station.

Here’s why he’s ending his NewsNation broadcast, and where Dan Abrams could pop up next.

Abrams confirmed his move through a post on the X social media platform:

Abrams provided more details of the show’s end while closing out the final broadcast.

“When I made the announcement in December, as much as I love this show and the mission of this network, I just can’t continue to give this show the attention it needs and deserves with all of my other professional commitments,” Abrams reportedly said. “But I don’t wanna get too nostalgic or sappy because this is definitely not goodbye. In fact, it’s not even goodbye from NewsNation.

“I’m working with them on possible weekly show concept, but regardless if that works out, I intend to still be a part of the NewsNation family.”

Dan Abrams still doing podcasts, ‘On Patrol’ show

In the same published report, yubi, Dan Abrams made it clear that he is a full go on his other programs and platforms.

“You can still catch me on Reelz on Friday and Saturday nights for ‘On Patrol Live,’ where we follow police departments in real time,” Abrams said. “I have my ‘Daily Politics Meets the Law Show’ on Sirius XM POTUS Channel, which will soon be available on YouTube as well. I’m still ABC News Chief legal analyst.

“I still host Court Cam on A&E, which also appears on some Nexstar networks as well,” Abrams added. “So I’ll still be doing a lot of TV. And most importantly, I run a major media business that needs my attention.”
