For the last decade, Saturday Night Lives Weekend Update has been co-anchored by the shows head writer — first with Tina Fey (2000 to 2006) and then Seth Meyers from 2006 until now. With Meyers taking over Late Night from Jimmy Fallon (himself a former Weekend Update anchor), the tradition continues: SNL head writer Colin Jost will co-anchor Weekend Update alongside Cecily Strong. So happy hes moving to the Weekend Update desk.— Seth Meyers (@sethmeyers) January 23, 2014
