BREAKING. After an absence of months, the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams and Meet the Press return to CNBC Africa.

You're reading it here first.

Both the NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams as well as the weekly show Meet the Press with David Gregory will be back on CNBC Africa (DStv 410) from this week.

This past Tuesday I was first RIGHT HERE with the news that both shows are set to return to the business channel imminently, and now I can tell you that it will indeed be so. The NBC Night News with Brian Williams will return to CNBC Africa from tomorrow/Tuesday morning at 00:30 South African time, an hour earlier than before when the show disappeared. America's daily news show with the highest viewership in America will once again be going out at this new time on weeknights.

Meet the Press will return as well and my CNBC Africa source says it will probably be its old time slot again, meaning midnights on Sunday nights. As I've said previously, both shows were yanked due to technical CNBC Europe content rights squabbles, who is now trying again. With these shows now again being available for CNBC Europe, they're also available for CNBC Africa.
