Rachel Nichols Gets CNN Show

    CNN announced that former local sports writer Rachel Nichols will begin to host a weekend sports show starting on September 20. The program will air on Fridays at the unusual time of 10:30 p.m. She joined CNN and Turner Sports as a sports reporter, NBA sideline reporter and NCAA basketball sideline reporter back on January 28. It was known when she first joined the organization that she would host a sports show later in the year.
    Nichols went by the name of Rachel Alexander when she worked as a sports writer at the Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel from 1995 until 1996. She then moved to the Washington Post where she had sports writer duties from 1996 to 2004. ESPN hired Nichols as a sports reporter and she was employed there for over eight years.
