In a February 2025 letter to NBC staff, Lester did not cite the reason why he chose to leave Nightly News.

“After 10 years, 17 if you include my years on the weekends, the time has come for me to step away from my role as anchor of Nightly News,” he wrote in the memo. “It has truly been the honor of a lifetime to work with each of you every day, keeping journalism as our true north and our viewers at the center of everything we do.”

Lester will focus on a full-time role on Dateline after he exits NBC Nightly News. In his letter to colleagues, the news anchor noted he was “thrilled to be able to work more closely with my enormously talented friends at Dateline as the broadcast continues to grow and attract new viewers in new places.”

What an amazing ride.”
