NBC Nightly News

Primetime network newscast

NBC Nightly News is the flagship evening news broadcast of NBC, airing weeknights and providing coverage of the day's major national and international stories.

Like its competitors on ABC and CBS, it represents traditional network journalism—anchored from a desk, thirty minutes long, targeting an older demographic that still watches scheduled television: My parents never miss NBC Nightly News.
