ABC Evening News

Of the "big three" anchors of the '80s and '90s, it always seemed like Peter Jennings was the most intellectual. Hard to believe that in his 22 years as anchor, he covered the collapse of the Soviet bloc and later September 11. As I understand it, early criticism of him came because of his more circumspect approach to certain topics than other anchors (or maybe it was just because he was Canadian).

Still, from what I've heard, it would have been good to see "ABC Evening News" during the Vietnam War and hear John Chancellor's indictment of that war. I remember when Peter Jennings showed the 25th anniversary of the modern broadcast's first airing (they reported on the trial of some Soviet Jews): John Chancellor correctly identified that the USSR was dooming itself to failure.

But no matter. Had Peter Jennings survived a few more weeks, he could have covered Hurricane Katrina. I had never known that he smoked. But a radio station noted that he reported on anti-war protests when the US invaded Iraq, so you gotta give him credit for that.

So, for all it's flaws, I recommend this news show.

We will NOT stop celebrating Christmas. As the Government wants us too. We don't care about the fear you try to put in us with your scary predictions. We are FREE AMERICANS AND WILL MAKE OUR OWN DECISIONS. NOT THE GOVERNMENT.

"ABC News" was always highly informative in the evening with the now late and great Peter Jennings. The network was always on top of things in events, though from time to time the network would focus much on international and foreign affair issues. The reporting and interviewing was always top notch from people like Charles Gibson, John Stossel, and Elizabeth Vargas, and the legendary Barbara Walters and Hugh Downs were unbeatable. Yet the most traditional and best was Peter Jennings it was sad he passed so young, Peter always told the news in a traditional manner with such a smooth and calm voice and he was always a hard working newsman and anchor. And ABC is probably the most conservative of the big three certainly more to the right than NBC or CBS.

We have always liked David Muir news program but wonder why it is necessary to repeat the headlines at least three times during the program. It is too repetitive and done every day. Our memory is fine and can't help but think we could get a good more info if it was not done,

David Murr ABC , CBS, CMBC NBC, How come none of use report the real facts in our country , how Biden is destroying the USA. Open boarders,Afghanistan pull out , Inflation high as ever before the war. You blame everything on Trump so if you don't report the real facts like Fox News you all should you all are guilty for misinforming the people of the USAand all should lose your jobs. We have more crime then ever with illegal imagrants , people losing their jobs and now living on the streets, taking in imagrants and boarding them with shelter and money before our own Veterans, you all should be ashamed of yourselves.
