Lester Holt is stepping away from the anchor chair at NBC Nightly News after a decade on the air...
From NBC News Universal
A short time ago, Lester shared with his team that after 10 years as the NBC Nightly News anchor, he’s taking on a dedicated full-time role at Dateline, his second home. Lester will continue at the helm of Nightly until early summer before he devotes his energy to the rapidly-expanding powerhouse that is Dateline.
Because of Lester’s steady and thoughtful leadership, Nightly News has sustained its perch as a trusted and top news destination for millions of viewers across America. He has led the network during some of the country’s most fraught and challenging times in the past decade, most notably during the early days of the pandemic when Lester’s voice was a source of comfort each night for so many. He’s taken viewers to the frontlines of every major story and sat down with world leaders, skillfully eliciting answers on consequential issues.
Quite simply, Lester is the beating heart of this news organization.
He’s earned deep respect and reverence from our newsroom, industry colleagues and, most importantly, viewers. What’s equally remarkable is how Lester has masterfully filled this esteemed role with extraordinary grace and humility. He’s proven time and time again why he stands among the great legends of broadcast news.
Lester will continue with NBC News for years to come leading another iconic and number one show- Dateline. Here, you can read the note Lester shared with the Nightly and Dateline teams.

HOPEFULLY, MR. HOLT WILL JOIN JOY REID SOMEWHERE WHERE THEY BOTH CAN BE APPRECIATED.
TO ME, LESTER HOLT HAD A TRUSTING FACE WHICH MADE ME BELIEVE WHATEVER HE WAS REPORTING.
HOPEFULLY, HE'LL JOIN ABC NETWORK NEWS. PERHAPS, CBS NEWS.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU, MR. HOLT WHERE EVER YOU GO!
More Time To Practice His BASS Playing.
Dateline? That’s a demotion. Maybe they offered him enough money to stay in the NBC family. That’s the only reason I can see him taking Dateline. Ugh.
All the networks and media, generally, are agreeing to the real project and the mission…Make America YT Again. Watch the replacement will def be a yt male.
