Hired by CBS in 2005, she has worked exclusively as an anchor/general assignment reporter for CBS News on Logo, a division of CBS News that provides programming for Logo, Viacom's 24-hour gay network.

Antoine is also known for her stint as the host of Logo's weekly online talkshow She Said What. The show is featured on the website AfterEllen.com and has been described a lesbian version of The View. Antoine is joined by co-hosts Staceyann Chin, Lauren Blitzer, and the site's creator Sarah Warn.
