Talk:Savannah Guthrie

message: In her bucket list interview, she states as having been born in Melbourne, Australia and moved to the States two years after. So, would deeming her as an "American Journalist" be appropriate?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.123.102.43 (talk) 16:23, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It's my understanding that she was born to American parents, that her dad was stationed in Australia at the time of her birth due to his job. Thus, like other children born to U.S. citizens temporarily out of the country, she does qualify as American. For example, Sen. John McCain, 2008 Presidential candidate, was born in Panama while his father was stationed there in the military. However that doesn't make McCain a Panamanian.

thread_title:  "American Journalist" 

message: Her first job was in Butte, Montana, not Missouri. She talked about it on the Tonight Show tonight, about how the station closed 10 days after she started working there. But at the moment I can't find a better print source than this. -LtNOWIS (talk) 04:54, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: US Weekly's a good source. Here's Huffington Post: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/31/savannah-guthrie-young-reporter-video_n_1845819.html You can also look for it on the NBC Tonight Show video archives. As this is last night's news, there will be plenty more to confirm. AngusWOOF (talk) 15:55, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  First job 

message: There are several contradictory statements here... For instance, in the lead paragraph, it states that Gutherie "joined NBC in September 2007" but in the Biography section states that Gutherie "became a reporter for NBC News in 2008". Additionally, in the Biography section, it states that Gutherie worked at WRC-TV until she left for a job with CourtTV in 2002 while simultaneously working for a D.C. law firm, but then states that she graduated from Georgetown Law School Magna Cum Laude in 2002. Impressive, but doubtful. It is more likely that she left WRC, got her law degree, and then went to work for CourtTV and a law firm, but we really don't know. The timeline needs a bit of research and rework. CharleyHart (talk)
: Hi, there's no need to guess when it's in her bio :
* September 2007 - joined NBC News
* 2006-2007 - Court TV Legal Affairs Correspondent
* 2004-2006 - Court TV National Trial Correspondent
* 2002-2003 - law firm of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer and Field
* 2002 - gets law degree and passes bar exam in Arizona and DC
* 2000-2002 - freelance reporter WRC-TV
* 1995-1999 - KVOA-TV , Arizona
* 1993-1995 - KMIZ-TV, Columbia, Missouri
Feel free to reference that and update the inaccurate sections. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:33, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Contradictory entries

message: There appears to be some confusion regarding Savannah Guthrie's current title(s) at NBC News. Here's is a link that leads to her current official bio at NBC:
https://www.nbcumv.com/talent/savannah-guthrie/bios_read_more?show=151259
The first sentence reads, "Savannah Guthrie is the co-anchor of NBC News' "Today."  She also serves as NBC News Chief Legal Correspondent."
Can we agree that both of her current titles should be noted in her Wikipedia article? / FFM784 (talk) 21:25, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: That site does not update things very good or it take a long time. It took them for a whole year or so to remove Meredith vieria form the TODAY Show credit on the page for TODAY Photos, News and Press Releases. She hasn't been Legal Analysis for over 2 Years now. The last time she acted in that role was on Ann Curry last day as Co-anchor Morningtv13 (talk) 23:12, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Can't you just strike out the dates active for that "known for" field? The space is for "A brief description of why the person is notable.", not a timeline of her positions. There is no requirement to show how long she has been active in those roles. If you need exact dates, then you'd have to provide the sources. -AngusWOOF (talk) 23:27, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Here are three good sources that all say that one of her title's is "NBC News Chief Legal Correspondent": Her Today Show bio - http://www.today.com/allday/savannah-guthrie-co-anchor-6C10110180 , her official NBC bio - https://www.nbcumv.com/talent/savannah-guthrie/bios_read_more?show=151259 and her Twitter feed - https://twitter.com/savannahguthrie, which was last updated just 20 hours ago. To me it is very clear that at this time she does in fact have this additional title. / FFM784 (talk) 16:04, 21 March 2015 (UTC)

text: Assuming the site isn't good at updating is synthesis / original research. I've already tried to remove the years active as it is unsourced but you put them back in. If you want those to stay, put those citations next to them and they won't be contested until there are better articles to justify it. -AngusWOOF (talk) 21:49, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Morningtv13, your statements appear to be based on original research which never takes precedence over a primary source on Wikipedia. I would suggest that you re-read WP:NOR. As soon as the article becomes unprotected it will updated accordingly. / FFM784 (talk) 22:06, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  , you can submit the request to change that section. I think with the sources provided as references, it should be cited appropriately. -AngusWOOF (talk) 16:47, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks, but I'm happy to wait until the protection expires on Tuesday. Then I will make the change and cite the appropriate reference. / FFM784 (talk) 17:26, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Current title at NBC News

message: What exactly is ancestral background? She was born in Australia but she is not of Australian/Oceania descent as far as I know of. I read the  surname 'Guthrie" is a old Scottish Name and has Origins in Scotland. She likely has Scottish Descent. Does anyone have any information on what her ancestry?

message: It is great to see a journalist who has been on the air for many years and interviewed so many people.   The odd thing is this posting lacks anything she has said over all that time that is controversial.   Can we treat all public figures without bias. 174.175.181.134 (talk) 00:38, 31 October 2023 (UTC)
