Tamron Hall show focuses on victims of 'Someone They Knew'
ABC News
Tamron Hall has plenty on her hands with a successful daytime talk show, but she's going back to her journalism roots with a Court TV series, “Someone They Knew,” about murder stories where the victims knew their killer
NEW YORK -- Now a successful talk show host, Tamron Hall is both returning to her journalism roots and taking advantage of the public's never-ending fascination with crime stories in a new Court TV series that debuts Sunday.
What the stories she tells in “Someone They Knew” have in common is what the title suggests — each of the victims had a personal connection to their killer.
Hall's daytime talk show, now in its third season, has been renewed for two more years. That's a significant success in an industry where establishing a syndicated show can be very difficult.
As a local news reporter in Chicago and her native Texas before that, Hall would often report on crime stories. After moving to NBC News in 2007, where she was a host on MSNBC and the third hour of “Today,” she also anchored a crime series on the Investigation: Discovery network for six years.
