Mr. Reig's death leaves Don Pardo, Roger Tuttle and Vic Roby as among the only surviving members of the famed NBC announcing staff - though of those three, only Mr. Pardo is still working, announcing "Saturday Night Live" to this day - however, he no longer works for NBC, retiring from the network a year before Mr. Reig.
they used his voice too long, you could hear how tired, or ill he was... some like Rooney, don't know when to retire...RIP

I think the announcer should be a 20 second sustained fart. Oh, wait, never mind, you already have that sappy John Williams "musak"...

I didn't know he died. No wonder I was surprised these days to hear a girly-voiced man doing the announcing. So sad.
They should just do the intro un-announced... or get James Earl Jones.

@HectorJW2007 - The weekday voice of "Nightly News" is now Michael Douglas. Still, however, you have a point . . .
