NBC's David Gregory Visits WKYC on Monday

"Meet The Press" Host David Gregory

The moderator of NBC's "Meet the Press" was in town on Monday to moderate the City Club's "Swing State, Building Our Momentum" at the Renaissance Cleveland Hotel on Public Square. The event began at noon and was widely attended by Cleveland's business leaders and political movers.

The panel featured Christopher Connor, Chairman and CEO of Sherwin Williams Co., Dr. Delos (Toby) Cosgrove, President and CEO at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Stephen Steinour, Chairman and CEO of Huntington Bancshares Inc. and Dr. Jerry Sue Thornton, President of Cuyahoga Community College.

Afterwards, David stopped by the WKYC Digital Broadcast Center for a visit, to shoot some promos with Senior Political Correspondent Tom Beres and to sit down with WKYC 6 & 11 PM anchor Russ Mitchell for a one on one interview about educating the campaigns on Cleveland's strengths.

David has hosted "Meet The Press" since December 14, 2008, after being formally introduced as full-time moderator. David took over from Tom Brokaw, the interim host, following the death of Cleveland favorite Tim Russert.

Catch "Meet the Press" every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. following Channel 3 News from 9 - 10:30 a.m.
