SEATTLE Lester Holt and the NBC Nightly News crew are in Seattle this week as part of their Nightly News Across America tour that has the show hitting five cities in five days to explore how different regions were impacted by the pandemic.
Seattle is the fourth stop before the week concludes in Los Angeles.
The tour started in 2016 and after the last year it would be easy to postpone the plans but NBC Nightly News Senior Producer Kim Cornett said, “taking the show on the road is a part of who Lester is!”
