Howard Reig has died. Howard was the longtime voice of Nightly News -- from the era of John Chancellor through yours truly. Perhaps the best way to remember Howard is through his retirement tribute by our director, Brett Holey, and through the memorial site his son has created. Howard's voice and spirit will always be with us -- our condolences to his family."

CircleSeven 1955 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 This is depressing news. My condolences to his family. He was THE Voice of the Nightly News.

stevieboy247 42 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Wow, I'm shock to hear this. I've been watching Nightly News ever since I was born. Rest In Peace Howard Reig, you will definitely be missed. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/4679-howard-reig-1921-2008/#findComment-43797 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I concur fully. Seems like a lot of good voice-over people have passed away this year (Don LaFontaine, Chris Clausen and now Reig). BTW, didn't know he was 87.
