A rare glimpse of all three of Pat Weaver's NBC "Communicators" on one stage...Dave's "Today" had been up and running successfully for well over a year,
while Arlene's groundbreaking "Home" would debut 3/1/54, and Steve would take the helm of "Tonight" on 9/27/54. Arlene and Dave would both also go on to report for NBC Radio's famous "Monitor," which ran for just shy of 20 years.
Yeah. "Today" debuted in 1952, so Dave was just gaining national prominence. Many viewers would have been more familiar with his work in comedy and music on "Garroway at Large" (1949-51) and his radio programs broadcast out of Chicago.
Today debuted 1/14/52, so it had been on for almost two eyars at this point. Garroway was already a prominent national media figure. But this panel probably wasn't awake that early, so they may have had trouble identifying him.

Americans can't understand your word, which is probably correct usage in England.
Americans, in the past, have messaged me and said the exact opposite of your good self.

Ironically, after Daly quit ABC News in late 1960, he became a frequent substitute Today Show host, working as a free-lancer.
