Holt Heads into the Field

NBC Anchor Lester Holt did something that he hasn't done since taking over for suspended lying Anchor Brian Williams.

He anchored the broadcast from the field.

Last night, Holt anchored “NBC Nightly News” from North Charleston, S.C., following the shooting death of unarmed black man Walter Scott by a white police officer, who was charged with murder after video showed him shooting Scott in the back.

Holt also interviewed bystander Feidin Santana, who recorded the shooting.

It was a good get by Holt and another step towards him getting BriWi's gig full time.
