Chuck Todd, the former host of \u201cMeet the Press,\u201d is departing NBC News, as he informed his colleagues in a memo on Friday.<\/p>\n
The decision comes as Todd seeks new opportunities outside the NBCUniversal family, Variety reported.<\/p>\n
In recent weeks, Todd has reportedly been in discussions with other news organizations and potential employers. His contract with NBC News, which was set to expire after the 2024 election, had been expected to come to an end around that time.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s never a perfect time to leave a place that\u2019s been a professional home for so long, but I\u2019m pretty excited about a few new projects that are on the cusp of going from \u2018pie in the sky\u2019 to \u2018near reality,\u2019 Todd told NBC News staffers in a memo Friday, per Variety. \u201cSo I\u2019m grateful for the chance to get a jump start on my next chapter during this important moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said his \u201cChuck Toddcast\u201d podcast would be \u201ccoming with me,\u201d while also urging colleagues to \u201cstay tuned for an announcement about its new home soon.\u201d<\/p>\n
Todd plans \u201cto continue to share my reporting and unique perspective of covering politics with data and history as important baselines in understanding where we were, where we are and where we\u2019re going,\u201d he said in the memo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
