Carer section
Not sure if the Career section of this is really accurate?
Holt spent 19 years with CBS beginning in 1981..... In 1982, he became a reporter and weekend anchor on KNXT in Los Angeles (that broke the continuum, unless that was still CBS) and the next year he returned to WCBS-TV as a reporter and weekend anchor. In 1986, Holt moved to WBBM-TV (also CBS?) in Chicago where he spent 14 years anchoring the evening news. (If he spen 14 there in 1986, what happened from '81 to 2000?)
fiscal cliff legislation
After hearing your report last night concerning the fiscal cliff legislation that Congress hastily past, we need to know specifically who the idiots are who wrote those items into the bill. It seems they always go unidentified and are allowed to hide in the shadows. It is clear that whoever it is has rubber stamped some lobbyists wish list once again instead of addressing the needs of this nation as a whole. Perhaps an expose of this question and a clear picture that identifies that person in Congress who writes this stuff will stop this crap. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.194.84.100 (talk) 14:59, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
Reports
Until NBC OFFICIALLY announces it, I don't think that it should be included that Holt is permanent and Williams is returning in a different role. It is just the media reporting and we don't actually know if it is true or not. Corkythehornetfan 01:15, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, but it's multiple media sources, including the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, CNN, etc. In any case, the multiple media reports say there will be an announcement tomorrow, so it doesn't matter that much either way. 209.211.131.181 (talk) 04:49, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

"and is now the morning news anchor at WMAQ-TV NBC5 Chicago" should be "and became the morning news anchor at WMAQ-TV NBC5 Chicago" if that even belongs in "Personal life" at all. 2001:558:1418:31:41B5:3C63:FF6:5B2F (talk) 19:41, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
