NBC TODAY Show host Savannah Guthrie is first in line to replace lying Brian Williams on the NBC Nightly News.
The news is being floated as a scoop by Drudge. Secret sources say Savannah has slid into first place among the names that have been mentioned in recent days that include Lester Holt and Matt Lauer.
His headline blares: “Savannah in waiting at NBC Nightly News.”
Guthrie came to TODAY in the summer of 2012.
If nothing else, Guthrie getting the job over Lauer would be quite a burn.
