ESPN reporter Rachel Nichols is leaving to work for CNN and Turner Sports.

The companies announced Thursday that Nichols will anchor a new weekend CNN sports program beginning later this year, and will report on a wide range of sports.

Nichols' hiring comes as new CNN Worldwide President Jeff Zucker puts his stamp on the struggling U.S. news channel, which he's promised to make more "vibrant and exciting."

Nichols will be an important part of expanding CNN's programming, the former NBC Universal chief said Thursday.

Nichols, who worked at ESPN for nine years, said she "couldn't be more excited" about working for CNN and Turner Sports. Both are divisions of Turner Broadcasting System Inc.

Her first assignment will be the Feb. 3 Super Bowl in New Orleans

I liked Rachel's reports on NFL Gameday. let's be honest, there are so many dinosaurs on that show and her youth countered that a bit. Now back to more dinosaurs lol

[Akiyama]

Sucks she left.

Also Tiger in the lead at the whogivesafuckitsnotamajor open.

lame. her screams are more annoying than anyone

the Sloane Stephens/Serena match was excellent, only good womens match I saw. female matches so boring compared to men

Azarenka is getting destroyed for her BS timeout against Stephens, as she should

if you get a chance to watch Murray v. Dj and miss out, you are doing yourself a disservice. Murray is a different player since he finally broke through

[Kang]

Tom-Jelte Slagter won for overall in the Tour Down Under. Good way to start the cycling season.

[Mugekuge]

So Nole won once again AO, i dislike so much Murray gameplay, fucking Murray is very talented but is so defensive that makes me ill.

Female tennis only player i like to watch is Serena, rest sux big ass, how much i miss the 90's in female tennis with Graff, Seles and Hingis...

[Moss]

Dj just too good

and Caleb Moore is in bad shape too. Winter X games is dangerous bizness

He's still in ICU since Friday. Had some bleeding around his heart and his condition is now affecting his brain. They are pulling the video down in a lot of places and the family is asking for prayers.

The comment about him catching a break by landing between the skis... He landed on his fucking face.

[Moss]

I would agree with that comment except it looks like the front of the snowmobile hit him anyway

that shit is bound to happen if you are flipping 450 lb snowmobiles around for sport

[Akiyama]

Caleb Moore, the guy from the X-Games who crashed passed away today.

Caleb Moore, the guy from the X-Games who crashed passed away today.

Just saw that on espn's front page.

Damn, that's crazy.

[Moss]

I wasn't very optimistic when they came out with the "brain complications" statement but sad nonetheless.

[Boyiee]

When I read he walked off the course after the crash I had a terrible feeling in my gut. The just expanded the X-games too, and in the first one they get a fatality.

[Kang]

Terrible news.
