ABC Evening News

What a disappoint ABC WORLD NEWS has become. It's 5 commercials for 1 story. Painful to watch but i do it until i can watch my favourite, Lester Holt and NBC.

Since we lost Peter Jennings ABC is not nowhere near what it was!

"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.

Since David Muir has taken over, you can chart how things have shifted, seeming narcissistically to feature more and more of Muir.

He eats up the first two or three minutes doing nothing but summarizing -- sometimes more than once -- news stories you're going to watch, to the degree that he often literally reports the same thing. (You can switch channels and they're already actually reporting.) Then he's got to interject himself into the news story again by interviewing the correspondent.

If you break down the 18 or 19 minutes of news in between the insufferable and repetitious commercials for pharmaceuticals and home products, there's very little content here anymore. They hit a couple of major events, then do a long segment on the weather, and then wrap it up with some saccharine feel good story about some suburban white kid who had a lemonade stand or something.

And Muir himself is harder to follow, from his weird haircut (I thought Jimmy Fallon was the goofiest on TV in this regard) to his sticky lips that the microphone picks up and makes disgusting.

The glory days where the news was done by thoughtful anchors and the content was rich are long gone. This is more like Muir's blog come to life.

Last night's debate done by the moderators of ABC was the worst one ever seen in the history of news. ABC is no longer considered a trustworthy station. Instead of being unbiased fair moderators, David Muir and Lindsey Davis attacked Trump and fact checked everything he said but did nothing of the sort for Kamala. They also gave their opinions which journalists should never do. I grew up watching ABC and respected PeterJennings. ABC is NOT THE SAME honest and honorable station it used to be. I am walking away from a station I grew up with and will never come back. Thank you for opening my eyes up to this biased unfair station and the untrusted journalists that work for you.

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,
