Twin Tiers Living 573 Posted February 24 Quote NEW YORK (AP) — NBC’s veteran Lester Holt is stepping down as anchor of the network’s flagship “Nightly News” broadcast in the coming months. Holt, who has been the face of “Nightly News” for a decade, won’t be leaving NBC altogether, however. In a memo to staff Monday, he said he would be expanding his work on NBC’s “Dateline,” taking on a full-time role. The transition is expected to take place early this summer. No firm date or successor for “NBC Nightly News” has been named yet. Source Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
