Tom Llamas takes over the anchor desk on NBC Nightly News

NEW YORK (WSAV) — Monday, Tom Llamas becomes the new face of 'NBC Nightly News.' Taking over as anchor, Tom brings 25 years of reporting and anchoring experience, along with a passion for journalism, to this prestigious role. This is a special moment for Llamas who says the opportunity is the American Dream. 'My parents left communist Cuba in the late 50s and early 60s. They came here with little to no money. They didn't know the language, and this incredible country gave them a second chance. So my parents taught me to always work hard, but to also love this country, and I do. I think it's the greatest place in the world. It's a testament to the American Dream is still alive. I started working in newsrooms when I was 15 years old. I started working at NBC overnights, making very little money. I've worked every single job in this in this business at NBC and now to be anchoring nightly News, it truly is the dream of a lifetime.' You can see Llamas tonight and every weeknight at 6:30 p.m. following WSAV News 3 at 6 with Tina Tyus-Shaw and Ben Senger. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Lester Holt's last night as anchor of 'NBC Nightly News'

NEW YORK, N.Y. (WSAV) — On Friday, Lester Holt will step down from 'NBC Nightly News.' On Monday, Tom Llamas takes over anchoring duties. Holt has been a steady presence in the anchor seat for more than a decade. And, while Holt isn't leaving NBC completely — he will continue to host 'Dateline NBC,' he will be missed by those who have turned to him during many major events over the last decade. He reported weeknights during the pandemic, international conflicts and presidential elections, just to name a few. Earlier this month, Holt spoke with 'Variety' about his impending departure and his new role. 'The big buy-in was to be able to do more of the hours,' Holt told Variety. 'I once spent two nights in prison for a Dateline, and I've done heartbreaking stories on the asthma crisis and the economy. I've done a lot of things that are outside of what many would think is a traditional Dateline, but I want to do more of those, and I want to be able to tell a producer, 'Yes, I'll be there for that interview next week,' because I won't be jumping after whatever is happening for Nightly.' During the interview, Holt discussed how his decision didn't come quickly. 'It wasn't like one moment of epiphany. I never saw myself doing this job forever. I decided that I needed to come off the Nightly gig, but I still had gas in the tank.' You can see Lester Holt's final night as anchor of 'NBC Nightly News' Friday following WSAV News 3 at 6. Tom Llamas will take over as anchor of 'NBC Nightly News' on Monday, June 2. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
