Kennedy to the Bush White House. Bob Lloyd Schieffer (born February 25, 1937) is an American television journalist. He is known for his moderation of presidential debates, where he has been praised for his capability. Schieffer is one of the few journalists to have covered all four of the major Washington national assignments: the White House, the Pentagon, U. S. Department of State, and United States Congress. His career with CBS has almost exclusively dealt with national politics. He has interviewed every U. S. President since Richard Nixon, as well as most of those who sought the office. Following his retirement from Face the Nation, Schieffer has continued to work for CBS as a contributor, giving political commentary covering the 2016 presidential election. Schieffer is currently releasing episodes of a podcast, "Bob Schieffer's 'About the News' with H. Andrew Schwartz". Schieffer has written three books: Face the Nation: My Favorite Stories from the First 50 Years of the Award-Winning News Broadcast, This Just In: What I Couldn't Tell You on TV, and Bob Schieffer's America.
