After nearly three decades at the network, NBC News correspondent Pete Williams has decided to retire at the end of July, NBC News president Noah Oppenheim announced to employees Thursday morning.
He ended up proving skeptics wrong. “I think Pete Williams has had one of the greatest careers at NBC News and one of the greatest careers in broadcast journalism in the past several decades,” Oppenheim told The Washington Post. “There is no way we can ever fill Pete’s shoes, certainly not with any particular reporter.”Andrea Mitchell, an NBC News colleague and close friend, met Williams while covering the Pentagon on pool duty.
While Williams worked for a local television station in Wyoming after college, he encouraged Barrasso, then working as an orthopedic surgeon, to contribute to health reports on the station, KTWO-TV. They have been friends ever since, though Barrasso said “he is a news reporter first.” In a statement this week, Cheney called Williams “a dear friend” and added that, “While he will be missed on air, I wish him well as he heads into retirement and thank him for being an example to all journalists on how to do the job fairly and responsibly.”
