NJ PBS is excited to announce that veteran journalist and New Jersey native Rob Nelson will serve as anchor of its new daily newscast, NJ PBS News with Rob Nelson.
Nelson brings 25 years of experience in print, local television and national broadcast journalism to NJ PBS. A native of Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, he has reported and anchored for some of the nation's leading news organizations, including ABC News, WABC-TV in New York City, NewsNation and Scripps News.
The announcement comes as NJ PBS prepares for a new chapter under the leadership of the College of Communication and Media at Montclair State University. Montclair became the operator of New Jersey's public television stations on July 1, 2026, and the university assumes full control of NJ PBS programming and the daily newscast on Oct. 1, 2026.

Sean Sullivan reports the news entirely on social video, no traditional newsroom beat. His TikTok investigation into the American Dream mall won a Poynter award. He joins our Sep 15 webinar on New Jersey's local news influencers to talk about doing that work day to day.
