“Meredith is a real pro, and I think it speaks volumes that NBC has brought her here to 'Today. I have been her fan for years and I can't wait to be her partner. She has the perfect background and personality to make a real mark on this show and in morning news in general. I'm thrilled to welcome her aboard.”
“Where in the World Is Matt Lauer?”

“It's possible. I think that's possible. . . . I think people are not looking at her accomplishments.”
“Don't get me wrong, I think you're probably telling the truth, but there might be a lot of people at home wondering how that could be possible with the conditions you're facing and with the insurgent attacks you're facing. ”

“I saw it last night.”

“What? You now have become the first recording artist I've ever sat across from who said, 'I wanted that album to sell fewer copies.' Why?”

“[Pat Buchanan, who sharpened his rhetorical claws as a Nixon speechwriter, told] Today's ... There's nothing heroic about breaking faith with your people, breaking the law, sneaking around in garages, putting stuff from an investigation out to a Nixon-hating Washington Post.”
“If Katie were to go off and do something challenging that she couldn't pass up, I'd be happy. And then I would be disappointed and at a loss for what to do. As long as it's for the right reasons and not because she's dissatisfied with anything here at NBC. But it would be a huge loss.”
