Deborah – who was cheered on by doting husband Al Roker in the crowds (who was also there to support Today co-host Sheinelle Jones) – shared an upbeat message alongside the photo to summarise the experience.

Upon hearing the news of his accolade, David said: “Walter Cronkite famously guided this country through some of the most trying moments in modern U.S. history and he did so by trusting his own compass, his deep commitment to journalism and the truth, and his willingness, in the darkest of times, to share his own humanity.
“To be honored in Cronkite’s name, is not only deeply humbling, it’s a call for us all to live up to those standards especially when they’re needed most.”
