When fan favorite Paula Faris left NBC-owned WMAQ-Channel 5<\/a> to join ABC News<\/a> in New York, she vowed she\u2019d have \u201ca forever connection<\/a> to Chicago.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now she\u2019s bringing that connection to \u201cThe View.\u201d On Tuesday the former NBC 5 sports anchor\/reporter was named<\/a> co-host of ABC\u2019s long-running daytime talk show.<\/p>\n

\"As a born and bred Midwestern girl, Chicago will always have a giant part of my heart,\u201d Faris told me. \u201cI'm really anticipating this next venture on 'The View' and bringing some Midwest sensibilities to the show. Sitting alongside this diverse group of accomplished women, 'The View' will once again be a platform where many voices and views are welcome.\"<\/p>\n

Faris, 39, will join Joy Behar, Candace Cameron Bure, Raven-Symon, Michelle Collins and moderator Whoopi Goldberg when \u201cThe View\u201d begins its 19th season September 8. Faris, who's been with the network since 2012, will continue as a correspondent for ABC News and weekend co-anchor of \u201cGood Morning America.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m humbled and excited to have not one, but two dream jobs \u2014 \u2018Good Morning America\u2019 and\u00a0\u2018The\u00a0View,\u2019\u201d she said in an earlier statement. \u201cWhat I love about the \u2018The View\u2019 is that no topic is off the table and every viewer can feel like they have a voice on the show. I can\u2019t wait to connect with the audience in a new way as I take a seat alongside this exceptional group of women.\u201d<\/p>\n

A native of Jackson, Michigan, and graduate of Cedarville University in Cedarville, Ohio, Faris worked at stations in Dayton and Cincinnati before joining NBC 5 in November 2005. She and husband John Krueger,\u00a0whom she met in college,\u00a0have three children.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday Krueger tweeted:<\/a> \u201cSo proud of @paulafaris and this great opportunity on @TheView she has been shaping my World View for the past 18yrs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
