NBC News Still In Damage Control Mode over David Gregory Leaks

NBC News Still In Damage Control Mode over David Gregory Leaks: After news leaked to the Washington Post that NBC News went so far as to hire a "psychological consultant" to interview the friends and family of David Gregory, NBC News has once again been forced to release a statement standing by its embattled "Meet the Press" host.

THR reports that Deborah Turness, president of NBC News, said in a statement:

There has been a great deal written about Meet the Press in the past few days, much of it quite ludicrous. I wanted to reach out to reiterate my support for the show and for David, now and into the future, as we work together to evolve the format. Unfortunately, some of the chatter has been vindictive, personal and above all – untrue. NBC News is proud to have David in the important anchor chair of Meet the Press. He is passionate about politics, and is committed to getting answers for our viewers on the issues that matter to them the most.
