<span class="RACopyBody">NEW YORK  — Former NBC "Meet the Press" moderator David Gregory is joining CNN as a Washington-based political analyst.</span>

<span class="RACopyBody">CNN said Monday that Gregory will appear primarily on "New Day," the network’s morning news show.</span>

<span class="RACopyBody">Gregory left NBC News after 20 years in 2014. The network’s management, concerned about fading ratings on a show that dominated Sunday-morning political television for years, replaced him with Chuck Todd.</span>

<span class="RACopyBody">Gregory is also the author of "How’s Your Faith," which discusses his spiritual and religious background.</span>

<span class="RACopyBody">CNN said it has also hired political consultant Angela Rye as an analyst. The Washington-based Rye is former executive director of the Congressional Black Caucus.</span><p>TV journalist David Gregory</p>Jordan Strauss
