Lester Holt
According to a 2018 poll, Holt was ranked as being the most trusted TV news anchor in America. Holt also moderated the first presidential debate of 2016 to mixed reviews; being credited for fact-checking the candidates for false statements while struggling to keep control of the debate and unable to adhere to time restrictions. While NBC Nightly News was the top-ranked evening news program for over 30 years during the Tom Brokaw and Brian Williams eras, ratings dropped to second place after Holt began as anchor.
On May 30, 2025, Holt left NBC Nightly News after nearly ten years as host, in order to become the full-time host of NBC news magazine show Dateline following his departure.
Holt is an accomplished bass guitarist who regularly plays blues and rock music, occasionally performing with bands at charity events and private gatherings.
