Mudd began his first major journalism job in 1961 when he worked for [[CBS News]]. Here he served as anchor of the networks weekend edition of [[CBS Evening News]]. During his time at the network he also worked as White House, congressional, and national affairs correspondent; as while as main substitute for CBS Evening News anchor, [[Walter Cronkite]]. Throughout Mudd's tenure, CBS ranked first among nightly newscast. Some believed that Mudd would be the replacement for aging anchor, Walter Cronkite, but these speculations were proven wrong when CBS gave [[Dan Rather]] the anchor job of the evening news program.<ref> http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1362577/posts</ref>. In 1982 Mudd choose to leave CBS to take on a job as co-anchor, with [[Tom Brokaw]], of [[NBC Nightly News]]. NBC hoped to bring back the success that co-anchors [[David Brinkley]] and [[Chet Huntley]] had brought to NBC with their top rated news program, [[NBC Nightly News| The Huntley-Brinkley Report}.  This idea turned out to be wrong as the two broadcasters did not work well together and ratings for the thirty minute news program began to sag. After only a year, Brokaw took over as sole anchor of NBC Nightly News and Mudd began to co-anchor NBC's top rated show [[Meet the Press]]. He worked at Meet the Press with co-anchor, Marvin Kalb, until 1986 when [[Chris Wallace]] took over the helm of the weekly news interview show. The year before he left Meet the Press, Mudd had also worked as host of another interview program, NBC's ''American Almanac.'' He worked with ''American Almanac'' until 1986 when he was hired by the Public Broadcasting Company as an essayist and political correspondent with the ''MacNeil-Lehrer Newshour''.  After Mudd left PBS, he worked as a journalism  professor at [[Princeton University|Princeton]], [[Washington University|Washington]] and [[Lee University]] from 1992 to 1996. He soon went back into the broadcasting work as the primary anchor of the [[The History Channel]], a job he kept until 2004, when he retired from full time broadcasting. Although now in retirement, Mudd remains involved with documentaries for the History Channel.
