NBC Nightly News

Lester needs to wear a suit jacket 2 sizes larger.

A not believe your station cancels weekly showing to air trash, and then your cast members talk trash about an ex president. I don't pay for tv to listen to your station side with a bunch of liars. Makes me sick that your station supports these idiots and liars. They stole one election and now they want to flip the script. Why don't you all air what was found on the ship that was stuck in the Panama, you know all the kids they had trafficked. All of these democratic politicians had their hands in it. You all should be ashamed of your selfs for support a side that has ruined our economy and gotten rich off the people.

I'm not a democrats. Now I know why this show only has about 5/10, because trump supporter expels his faeces at there. You can found a review which wrote by trump supporter. There are umpteen video of presidential debate on the internet, why this trump supporter just wrote his insane comment at there? Only review about NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt should be write at there, right? Trump just lost the first presidential candidate debate, because of his lack of knowledge about political debate. Hillary knew how to beat him one on one. "Fair?" I remember there are lots of critical comment about the "fair concept" of socialism. Why this trump supporter think a artificial debate, moderated by human, can be absolutely fair? He should just ask Trump study more, not to say bulls at there. Hope Trump has a better performance at second presidential candidate debate.

Like 'em or not, the mainstream nightly broadcasts still draw around 30 million viewers a night... so they're still relevant in American life.

As for balance, talent and the ability to effectively use 22 minutes per show..I'd say on merit they fare well... though like any form of information/entertainment they could always do better.

Still, I'd take Brian Williams over the rest any day.

Correspondents by and large (men and women like Tim Russert, Andrea Mitchell et al... and anchors like Brian, Lester Holt, Matt Lauer et al may not have all the answers but they at the very least they do reach out to millions of Americans and try to provide context, perspective and hopefully a snapshot of our nation.

Best of all, they're going to get better because viewers are becoming more sophisticated and with so many choices along the viewing landscape broadcast networks had better improve or they'll face extinction.
