I love Laura Coates! I love seeing her articulate her expertise on CNN and guest hosting for Don Lemon! She knows her stuff, is very smart, speaks with poise, yet remains very humble! I have been a fan from the first time I saw her on CNN. Go Laura, I am rooting for you!

Awesome women!!

[@Transformational_change]

Can’t believe they did not respect Alex Trebek’s wishes. Laura Coates would have been awesome. I was upset they didn’t pick Levar Burton, but I didn’t know she was Alex’s first choice.

[@marcpower4167]

I wish they had at least given Laura the chance to guest host jeopardy. She would have been terrific I think.

[@jedi1967]

Laura Coates host of Jeopardy? I watch that

[@capricemadrid5353]

Shouldve been Laura Coates instead of Mayim Bialik

[@KathyKateShort]

Beautiful story Laura,super proud of you.

[@eargasm1072]

She is so very intelligent, articulate and beautiful to boot 😍

[@cookiewood4330]

You are no. Different than the others, Israelis got to you too, your soul is worth more

[@christhornton1785]

If Trebek "hand-picked" her as his replacement, why hasn't this been talked about, a lot, before now. I think another example of someone claiming something when no one is left to verify it.

[@Black.History.365]

He said it in an interview with Harvey Levin. He also mentioned Alex Faust.

[@missjuds]

Maybe you should check things out, before hinting someone is lying.😏

[@donnawilliams3872]

What God has for Laura it will be!!!!!!

[@christhornton1785]

@@Black.History.365 That was long ago and was in response to a specific question about her. Not necessarily who he would have chosen amongst many candidates.

[@Black.History.365]

@@christhornton1785 it was a general question about “who” and he specifically named Laura Coates and Alex Faust, so it’s definitely not someone “claiming something” when asked about it.
