David Gregory became most widely known for his role as the moderator of NBC’s Meet the Press, succeeding the late Tim Russert. During his tenure, he conducted high-profile interviews and maintained the show's position as a central platform for political discourse. However, in 2014, Gregory was replaced in that role. While there were widespread reports suggesting that NBC paid him a settlement to exit quietly—allegedly around $4 million—those reports remain unconfirmed. Despite speculation to the contrary, neither Gregory nor NBC publicly disclosed the nature of his departure.
