ABC News Nightline

Poo poo on Dan Harris and ABC for turning his (Dan's) book promoting meditation into a promo for a book he co-wrote with Jeff Warren. Shame on you. I thought I was watching an info commercial instead of learning about current events or top news stories. Shame, shame, shame and very tacky.

This show began at the height of the Iran hostage crisis and the incoming presidency of Ronald Reagan which changed America forever. Now adays, 24/7 news networks have taken over these late night news shows, and this one is part of a dying breed. Avoid it at all costs.

It's not a news show, but simply propaganda. I stumbled upon this show by accident only to see that it has an extremely bias agenda and trying to pass it as news.

I used to be a huge fan of Nightline in the days with Ted Koppel. Nightline used to give you the information about a current issue in the country, then have a couple of experts debate the issue. I thought that it was very interesting and entertaining. But sadly, today, Nightline is nothing more than another news magazine show, and the stories are mostly boring. They mostly talk about stories that are already all over the news. Sadly, this is exactly what happened when Hugh Downs left 20/20, 20/20 used to be all about consumer investigations and undercover stings, today it's nothing more than a myth busting show beside what's already in the news. Most of these stories are already all over the news, and we don't want to hear them again, we want to hear something that's different and interesting!

Wow. After I wrote a review (not favorable) of Nightline, I noticed that most of the reviews for this news (?) format goes back as far as 2003 or beyond. Doesn't say much for the show.
