Kotb responded warmly to Guthrie, saying: "Well, there's no one I'd rather be sitting next to in 2018 than you."
NBC News chairman Andy Lack announced the move just moments before the show went live on Tuesday, saying in a statement: "Over the past several weeks, Hoda has seamlessly stepped into the co-anchor role alongside Savannah, and the two have quickly hit the ground running.
