Newsroom Coffee And Sugar Habits At NBC News

Reading Time: < 1 minute

The Over-Caffeinated Newsroom At NBC News

Here’s a video that documents the talent of NBC News and their substance of choice.

• Brian Williams (NBC Nightly News): Power Bars and gels
• Ann Curry (Today Show): 12 shots of Starbucks espresso
• Tim Russert (Meet The Press): Diet Coke & licorice
• Mara Schiavocampo (NBC News): Gallons of Red Bull
