Tim Russert was the permanent host of Meet The Press from 1991 until his sudden death in June 2008. After several temporary hosts (including Brian Williams and Tom Brokaw), David Gregory was chosen in December 2008. Debuting in 1947, Meet the Press is the longest running show in broadcasting history. (Its very first host was a woman, the show's creator and co-producer, Martha Rountree.)
