Endorsements from Hoda and Savannah
Peter also received glowing endorsements from two of TODAY's biggest names, Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie. Savannah praised him, saying, “There is no one better or more qualified to be sitting in this very TODAY show seat.” Hoda echoed those sentiments, adding, “We have been cheering you on, Peter, from the beginning. It’s going to be so cool to see you on Saturday mornings when we all get up at seven to watch you.” Their support highlights Peter’s value to the NBC family and his respected place in the industry.
Peter Alexander's Journey with NBC News
Peter first joined NBC News back in 2004, quickly establishing himself as a key player in international news coverage. He reported from the frontlines during Iraq’s 2005 election and covered the historic event of Osama bin Laden’s death. Since 2012, he’s been the White House correspondent, a role he will continue to fulfill during the week while also flying back to New York City every Saturday to anchor TODAY. This juggling act shows just how committed he is to delivering top-notch journalism.
Transitioning into this new role shouldn’t be too challenging for Peter, considering he’s already been stepping in for former co-anchor Craig Melvin, who left in August to focus on weekday coverage. Craig himself sent warm wishes to Peter, saying, “It’s a great team in front of the camera, behind the camera. Congrats, buddy. Congrats, congrats.”

What Lies Ahead for TODAY?
Peter’s official hiring comes at a pivotal time for NBC and TODAY, amidst the drama surrounding Megyn Kelly and her weekday 9 a.m. show, Megyn Kelly TODAY. Following her controversial racist comments, the network confirmed last week that Megyn is on her way out. As NBC navigates these staffing changes, it will be fascinating to see how the show evolves and continues to thrive with fresh faces like Peter leading the charge.
