Meet the Press is a weekly
American television news/interview program that is broadcast on
NBC. It is the
longest-running program in television history, though its current format bears little resemblance to the one it debuted with on November 6, 1947. Like similar shows that have followed it,
Meet the Press specializes in interviews with national leaders on issues of
politics,
economics,
foreign policy and other
public affairs, along with panel discussions that provide opinions and analysis. It originates from NBC's Washington, DC studios.
