On-air Staff
Early Today is the only American early morning network newscast with both a meteorologist and a sports anchor on staff, anchors of ABC's America This Morning and the CBS Morning News act as weather presenters and the latter newscast's anchor also acts as the sports presenter. Presently, Lynn Berry serves as main anchor of the program with Veronica De La Cruz anchoring on occasion. NBC meteorologist Bill Karins (formerly with NBC Weather Plus until shortly before it ceased operations in 2008, and worked on Early Today concurrently with his duties on NBC Weather Plus) does the national and regional weather forecast, and Fred Roggin and Mario Solis of NBC owned-and-operated station KNBC in Los Angeles rotate as sports anchors, taping the segment shortly after KNBC's 11 p.m. broadcast in order to cover all West Coast sports results. The Weather Channel, which is part-owned by NBC Universal, brands its weather forecasts used on the program.

Famous quotes containing the word staff:
“... all my letters are read. I like that. I usually put something in there that I would like the staff to see. If some of the staff are lazy and choose not to read the mail, I usually write on the envelope “Legal Mail.” This way it will surely be read. It’s important that we educate everybody as we go along.”
—Jean Gump, U.S. pacifist. As quoted in The Great Divide, book 2, section 10, by Studs Terkel (1988)
