Andy Lack Could Help BriWi Keep his Job
FTVLive told you that former NBC News boss Andy Lack is headed back to the Peacock and the announcement could happen before the end of the week.
That is potentially very good news for NBC Anchor Brian Williams.
Lack was responsible for grooming Williams to take over the anchor chair on "NBC Nightly News" from Tom Brokaw and while it is not a guarantee that BriWi will get his job back, it makes the odds better.
"They are great friends," said another former colleague of both men to the LA Times. "Brian Williams thanks Andy for getting the chair."
It is expected that Lack will replace NBCUniversal News Group Chairman Pat Fili-Krushel, who is set to take another corporate role.
Sources tell FTVLive that suits have been meeting with Fili-Krushel to talk about her new role at the company.
Stay tuned....
