Chuck Pierce and Portia Scott are the show's mismatched co-anchors. John Michael Higgins plays old-school broadcaster Chuck, while Nicole Richie plays the younger, social-media-savvy Portia.

Who does Tina Fey play in Great News?

Tina Fey appears in the second season as Diana St. Tropez, a powerful business executive who becomes an apparent mentor to Katie. Fey also served as an executive producer rather than playing one of the regular newsroom staff.
