The 34 Sexiest People in Television News 2015
Alex Wagner
Although 2015 was the year that brought about the end to Alex Wagner’s daytime MSNBC show, she has remained a solid contributor to the network landscape. She has since become the default go-to for the network to fill in some of their most important time slots. And why wouldn’t she make it to our list? In addition to marrying President Barack Obama’s personal chef Sam Kass, Wagner ended her last broadcast in pretty epic fashion this year. She’s talented and incredibly beautiful and deserving of being on many good end-of-year lists.
Anderson Cooper
Really, is there anything that Anderson Cooper of CNN — and past Mediaite’s Sexiest People in TV News fame — can’t do? This week the steely eyed Cooper will host live network coverage of New Years Eve celebrations; this comes after Cooper turned in arguably the best debate moderating performance of the 2016 season. The host of 360 has not been afraid to take on the Presidential candidates, and his numbers as of late have spelled success for CNN. As for the sexy train? Look. at. those. eyes. Come on now! Coop’ must be aging backwards because he looks as good as ever.
Thomas Roberts
MSNBC anchor Thomas Roberts would pretty much be a shoo-in for any sort of ‘sexiest’ list on TV, but there’s more than just looks to this handsome daytime anchor. Earlier this year, Roberts battled former Democratic National Committee chair Howard Dean over the ongoing Clinton email controversy. OK but enough with all that fancy stuff — can we talk about dude’s jawline for a second? Not to mention his Instagram page full of photos of Roberts with his equally sexy husband, like this diddy at the Human Rights Gala of the two of them.
Elisabeth Hasselbeck
Sadly it seems as if 2015 will be the last year, at least for a while, that Fox & Friends cohost Elisabeth Hasselbeck will make this list for us here at Mediaite; Hasselbeck — who’s so beautiful that her name was the first one blurted out by our staff — celebrated her final episode of the show just this month. In addition to being a valuable part of the Fox News landscape, Hasselbeck was also a strong force weighing in on issues of politics. She recently battled White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest live on-air, challenging the President’s rhetoric following the French terror attacks last month.
Abby Huntsman
Ahh, to think about how civil things were in the GOP primary race back when Utah Governor Jon Huntsman Jr. was running for President. Since that time, his daughter Abby Huntsman impressed as cohost of the now-defunct Cycle on MSNBC before joining Fox News earlier this year. It’s hard not to see why she made our list — her father’s a husband dude, and she kept the beautiful-genes alive and well. Huntsman anchored America’s Newsroom during the holidays last week for Fox, and was a clear choice to make our list again this year.
More to go! Who else is deemed the Sexiest of the year?
