Legendary journalist Ted Koppel is joining Brian Williams’ new NBC primetime newsmagazine ‘Rock Center’ as a special corespondent.

“A pioneer of broadcast journalism, Ted has touched every major news event spanning nearly 5 decades,” Steve Capus, president of NBC News, said in a statement. “And not only does he bring a tremendous amount of experience to the broadcast, he is a tireless advocate for quality journalism, and is one of our profession’s premiere storytellers.”

Williams added, “My goal has been to make ‘Rock Center’ the Cooperstown of our craft. Ted is a consensus Hall of Famer, joining the best team of men and women on the air today. While his place in the history of television journalism is already established, his work here is just beginning.”
