Re: Brian Williams Is Not Returning To Nightly News

CNN is reporting that Lester Holt officially has the job!  I'm so happy for him and wish him the best of luck.

I hope Lester did get it.  I really enjoy him!

It's official, they gave the job to Lester Holt.  I don't think that surprised anyone.  Even if Lester hadn't done such an exemplary job; Brian Williams was never going back to the nightly news.  His crediblity was tarnished beyond repair.

Shell, I agree. But I prefer David Muir anyway.

They found a job for Williams over at MSNBC.  I could make a snarky comment, but I'll refrain, LOL.

They are not letting him back at NBC but sending him to MSNBC for possible subbing in chairs on those news/talk shows.  NBC is a bit more classy than MSNBC.  He still is not credible for me to get my news from fun or current events.
