Savannah Guthrie

She's been on the set.

She's been with them...

Throughout the years.

So this is something that affects everybody in that newsroom on that set.

And they could have blown it out and they could have started and made a big, a much bigger deal about it.

But then that might have looked gratuitous.

That might have looked icky in a way.

This was perfectly handled.

So they all were on set there at the 7.30 half hour as Hoda introduced the piece and the interview.

It ended up going on tape, was it seven, eight minutes?

Yes, somewhere around there.

I didn't time it.

But yes, as you just mentioned, she's starting, gave us a lot of information about how she got the news, got a phone call, got it from her sister, said mom is missing.

Call 911.

She said, yeah, we already did.

They're already here.

She was almost the last family member to realize that something terribly was wrong.

Police were already at the house when Savannah Guthrie got word that her mom was missing.

I thought that was interesting.

You know, because I thought it was interesting, too, and I'm imagining her sister probably didn't want to call her and alarm her until she knew something was wrong.
