Holt discussed broadcasting to a divided America.

“What I’ve seen in the last few weeks now is everyone is like, ‘You know what, this is an amazing time to do what we do — to be journalists, to stand up and ask tough questions, take the hits as they come, but really fulfill our role, which is to hold people in power accountable,” Holt said.
