The claim
NBC will have announced Craig Melvin's return to the Today show anchor desk by 2026-11-30.
Reasoning trace
- Base rate: TV news anchors who survive an on-air assault return to anchoring within two months ≈ 75%
- The attack prompted NBC to plan studio security upgrades, indicating the show and Melvin's role are expected to continue.
- No signal suggests permanent disability or resignation, and two months is sufficient for typical recovery and network scheduling.
