Releasing This Year

NBC Nightly News is the most-watched evening newscast in America, providing the very latest on the day's top stories and going beyond the headlines to add context and analysis to the most pressing issues of our time, both at home and abroad. We go to the heart of breaking news stories, introduce you to everyday people caught up in extraordinary events, offer in-depth reporting on health and medicine, cover international news as it unfolds and we profile those who inspire us to do better in our popular Making A Difference reports. The award-winning broadcast carries a legacy that spans more than six decades, beginning in 1948 - when NBC started broadcasting television's first-ever regularly scheduled network evening newscast.
