Anyone still watch the American news at 6:30pm on CBS, ABC or NBC?
I haven't in years.

I watch NBC Nightly News, only because my sister lives in NYC and I want to see a quick recap of what's going on down there. It's the lesser of three evils, because I can't stand David Muir, even if ABC is the #1 show at 6:30. And CBS has all but destroyed its credibility with its recent moves. So they're not even on my radar.

NBC on a regular basis.
Got a little tired of David Muir's over the top delivery and that he kept telling me what was coming up only to tell me a second time before actually getting to the story. Get on with it !!
CBS has lost all credibility with me.

We watch NBC regularly at 6:30. Not sure why, but I've always tended to watch NBC even when CBS had Uncle Walter.

I usually watch Global National at 630pm. During commercials I'll flip through CNN, CTVNC, CBCNN, and CP24 (aka CTV) because those four channels are grouped together on Bell Fibe.
I've never developed an affinity for the Big Three AmeriNets and even though they're also grouped together on Bell Fibe, they never cross my mind.

I agree that NBC is the best of the three. Although they are starting to do very long headlines at the beginning of their newscast like ABC. Tom Llamas has proven to be a good replacement for Lester Holt.
Usually watch NBC when something big has happened and I want to compare with CNN. Often flip around to ABC and CBS, to compare with NBC. However when I watch US news at 6:30 it is for the first 15 minutes. After that all three networks have too many commercials and very short breaks with "teaser" stories. Then I am gone. Normally I would see NBC two or three times per week.

I'm glad to see I'm not alone in this.

Looking at those headshots, how do you tell who's who?
