An incisive, Emmy-winning late-night news series that usually analyzes the day's top story, with interviews following an in-depth report. It occasionally features program-length documentaries, in-depth weeklong series or town-hall forums. The program began in November 1979 as `The Iran Crisis: America Held Hostage', with Frank Reynolds at the anchor desk. Ted Koppel took over shortly thereafter and it expanded its scope (and took the name `Nightline') on March 24, 1980.
  • Two Nightline Anchors Suffer Freak Injuries | Today's News: Our Take | 4/18/2008
    Is there an anchor in the house? An ABC spokesman tells TVNewser.com that Nightline (Weeknights, 11:35 pm/ET, ABC) anchor Cynthia McFadden fell down some stairs in New York's Penn Station yesterday afternoon and was unable to anchor last night's show. Coanchor Martin Bashir was brought in, but he cut his head on something hanging over the World News set and required stitches. So much for Plan B.But the show must go on. Luckily, Terry Moran, the third member of the three-anchor rotation, was nearby and was called in about an hour before the broadcast. He got through the show unscathed. McFadden is expected back in the anchor chair tonight. Bashir is recovering from his injury. — J.R. Whalen read more
