• 'NBC Nightly News' Ratings on the Rise With Lester Holt in Command

    NBC News has spent the last month basically in a state of crisis thanks to the scandal surrounding Brian Williams. After the network confirmed that their beloved NBC Nightly News anchor had developed a bit of an embellishment problem they decided to suspend him without pay for 6 months. Figuring out how to punish Williams might have been the easy task, revamping NBC Nightly News was a whole lot bigger. They decided to put Lester Holt into the anchor chair in place of their fallen star and thankfully, things are going well.

  • Ex-'Dateline' Reporter Chris Hansen Returning to TV with 'Killer Instinct' on ID

    Even if the name "Chris Hansen" does not ring an immediate bell, you probably still know who he is. Hansen starred in "Dateline NBC's" investigative "To Catch a Predator" series, which began in 2004 and ran for years until the network moved in a different direction and let him go in 2013. Hansen is a 20-year veteran of NBC and his reporting has made him an Emmy winner who was not going to be missing from television for long. After a bit of a break, Hansen has been hired for Investigation Discovery's new six-part series "Killer Instinct with Chris Hansen." "Investigation Discovery is thrilled to bring Chris Hansen's journalistic expertise and passion for the truth to our viewers. Chris and our partners at ITN Productions are working hard to produce an investigative newsmagazine that will draw in the viewer and make them feel as if they are right there in the moment — living every jolt and shock as the criminal drama unfolds. That is what Chris does best, and we look forward to what will unfold in 'Killer Instinct,'" said Henry Schleiff, group president of Investigation Discovery, American Heroes Channel, Destination America, Discovery Family Channel and Discovery Life Channel. Hansen is thrilled to be back doing what he loves best: working in the field in a dicey situation.
