The View co-host Sunny Hostin will be moonlighting on a different network.
Hostin will host and executive a new Investigation Discovery series, tentatively titled The Whole Truth With Sunny Hostin. The six-episode series will debut later this year.
In the program, Hostin will travel around the country and cover some of the nation’s most controversial homicides.
“Becoming a part of the Investigation Discovery family has been a dream come true for me,” said Hostin in a statement. “I have spent my career trying to tell the stories of the voiceless and the forgotten and being able to use what I have learned during my career as a federal prosecutor and my passion for journalism and storytelling to shed light on these complex, multi-dimensional and powerful cases is an opportunity of a lifetime.”
In addition to co-hosting The View, Hostin is senior legal correspondent for ABC News. She previously spent 12 years as a federal prosecutor.
ID chief Henry Schlieff called Hostin “the ultimate triple threat: a great journalist, top prosecutor and a woman whose personal background gives her special insight and compassion into these tragic stories. This unique constellation of skills, experience and character along with her advocacy for those who are most vulnerable, is at the heart of this series.”
