mountainave 606 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Thought this warranted its own thread. ABC News announced big changes to its ABC News Live streaming platform, including new programming anchored by broadcast talent Tom Llamas and Linsey Davis. See: https://abcnewspr.tumblr.com/post/190423948366/americas-1-streaming-news-channel-kicks-off-all and and a preview of a new set (which may or may not be a product of the major TV3 renovations?): Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17526-abc-news-live/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Action Newsroom 1281 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I like what I'm seeing so far too. This could be ABC News Now V2 but even better with the right crew behind the camera, so I'm ecstatic. 1 hour ago, mountainave said: preview of a new set (which may or may not be a product of the major TV3 renovations?): My silly self first thought the set and its screens were straight up leftovers from Live with Kelly and Ryan. But they (and the in-screen graphics) look great; can't wait for its first use on air.

tvtime07 252 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I did away with paid live tv this year, so this is a welcome addition to my streaming lineup. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17526-abc-news-live/#findComment-240001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvtime07 252 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 Here's an hour of ABC News Prime. I really like the look and feel of the newscast, they covered a lot of things, no fluff or pop culture index -- just straight news, sort of felt like vintage CNN Headline News. I also like their intro, which features ABC News logos from the past.

Georgie56 3304 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I'm watching tonight's show right now. It feels like an hour-long World News Tonight. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17526-abc-news-live/#findComment-240343 Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 5577 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Excellent touch on the streaming coverage open for the Iowa Caucus on Monday. They dig into the archives (1:15) and include clips of Jennings, Sawyer, Stephanopoulos, Muir, finally cutting to Tom Llamas, who was anchoring on ABC News LIVE. It was a 2008 Gibson away from hitting all the right notes. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17526-abc-news-live/#findComment-240364 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DENDude 217 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I Believe Disney is missing an opportunity with ABC NEWS LIVE, Why isn't this being advertised during world news tonight or GMA?? I haven't seen an ad on tv for it yet. My other question is how does this compare to CBSN ? I haven't watched it enough to know..

MorningNews 1448 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 It’s been promoted on Good Morning America and WNT. GMA often pitches it at the end of the program although not as much since the start of COVID-19.

24994J 5577 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 It also has a spot in the recently-updated bug rotation during both flagship programs. Casually tuning into ABC News shows throughout the week, I'll see at least 3 or 4 promos a week.
