The history of ABCNews starts from the 1960s and early 1970s when ABC News was not a major news player as compared to NBC News and CBS News. It went like that until the President of ABC News was Roone Arledge. He made ABCNews a major player in news by his experimentation with the broadcast “model” that led to the creation of many of the enduring and most popular programs that includes This Week, 20/20, Primetime Live, Nightline and World News Tonight.
