<p><i>EWTN News Nightly</i> welcomed its new anchor, Veronica Dudo, on Sept. 8 to a role in which the veteran journalist said she hopes “to spread the word about what’s happening in the world through a Catholic lens.”</p>
<p>In an interview with <i>EWTN News In Depth</i>, Dudo told President and COO of EWTN News Montse Alvarado that she wanted to be a journalist “to give a voice to those who would otherwise go unheard.”</p>
<p>“I have always been a very curious person about others and the world around me,” Dudo said. “So I knew very early I enjoyed storytelling. Being a journalist was a great way to be able to do that.” </p>
<p><i>EWTN News Nightly</i> is the network’s flagship news show and the most-watched program on broadcast and across our digital platforms. We’re excited to see how Veronica will add to this award-winning team,” Alvarado told CNA. </p>
<p>Dudo is an Emmy Award-nominated journalist and anchor with decades of experience in the field. As she assumes her new role for a global network, she brings skills from past work as a global communications expert and an international relations consultant. </p>
<p>EWTN’s “unwavering mission to serve the faithful and also to be a voice of truth” is what drew Dudo to be a part of the network. The anchor position “seemed like an amazing opportunity … to tell stories through a Catholic lens, while also giving [people] information about what’s happening in the world around them,” Dudo said, adding that she is no stranger to EWTN. </p>
<p>“I was of a generation that grew up watching EWTN. I remember being young and my grandparents and great aunts and uncles always had the network on. They had such a love for Mother Angelica.”</p>
<p>EWTN has “grown like a tree with so many branches, and it really has helped people. It’s not just the headlines. It does go beyond that,” Dudo said. “Each network has a unique mission and audience, but with EWTN, truth is always at the forefront.” </p>
<p>She added: “Being able to help people understand what’s happening, in addition with their spiritual lives, is something that really sounds like a dream to be a part of. Right now, there is an outpouring of people who are very interested in faith-based programming. So I think the timing is really perfect.”</p>
<p>With the Catholic faith at the forefront of her work, Dudo detailed her love for praying the rosary and her affection for Eucharistic adoration, which she said helps her find “a quiet stillness.” She added: “It is an inspiration for me. It’s a regrouping of where I can stop and recalibrate, understand, especially when things are so busy in the world and chaotic.”</p>
<p>Dudo made her on-screen debut for “EWTN News Nightly” on Monday, Sept. 8. Now serving as the voice and anchor of the show, Dudo said she is looking forward to highlighting the “morals and the teachings” of the Church. “It’s amazing to be with EWTN that informs and inspires but also evangelizes.” </p>
<p>“It’s a great joy to walk into a network where you can really be who you are,” Dudo said. She shared what sets the network apart: “You don’t have to apologize for your faith.”</p>
<p>“Veronica knows EWTN as a viewer and now gets to be a part of the team that brings news from a Catholic perspective to every soul we reach. She’s always been part of the EWTN family, only now she’s in the anchor chair weekdays at 6 and 9 p.m. Eastern,” Alvarado said.</p>
