Peter Alexander, a renowned TV-news correspondent, has announced his departure from NBC News after 15 years of serving as the network's chief White House correspondent.
During his tenure, Alexander co-anchored the Saturday edition of 'Today' and frequently engaged with sources in Washington, followed by travel to New York City for his 'Today' commitments.
In a heartfelt moment, Alexander expressed a desire to be more available for his two young daughters, having missed over 200 Friday nights due to preparations for his weekend responsibilities.
Alexander has garnered attention for posing key questions to President Donald Trump, which led to backlash, including Trump calling him a 'terrible reporter.'
Despite the challenges, Alexander stated that he views himself as an advocate for the facts, not an advocate for Republicans or Democrats.
He has covered the White House under both Republican and Democratic administrations and has been part of the 'Today' weekend team since 2018.
