toss
n.— «It is known, in the lexicon of television news, as a throw or toss—an onscreen handoff from one host to another. And to Jonathan Klein, the new president of CNN, none is more critical than the throw from Larry King to Aaron Brown each weeknight just before 10.» —“CNN Seeks New Ways to Battle Fox News” by Jacques Steinberg New York Times Mar. 23, 2005.
