Beginning November 7th, NBC NIGHTLY NEWS will make history by becoming the first and only network newscast to be broadcast as is, in its entirety and free of charge, online exclusively at MSNBC.com.
As a result, NIGHTLY NEWS will now expand its daily audience beyond the limits of the broadcast television platform to the Internet, and beyond this country to the entire world.
The announcement was made today by STEVE CAPUS, Acting President of NBC NEWS and CHARLIE TILLINGHAST, President of MSNBC.com.
"This is the next logical step for NIGHTLY and NBC NEWS," said Capus. "As the leader on the broadcast side, and with our partnership in the leading online news and information site, MSNBC.com, it couldn't be a better fit. We know that just as fast as technology is changing, people's lives are changing too, and they expect our newscasts to keep up with those changes. With this announcement we are doing just that."
For those viewers who cannot watch the nation's No. 1 network evening newscast when it airs in their local broadcast market, they will now have the opportunity to view NBC NIGHTLY NEWS on the Internet beginning at 10 pm, ET at NightlyNews.msnbc.com.
NBC NIGHTLY NEWS NETCAST WITH BRIAN WILLIAMS will be the same program that aired earlier in the evening on NBC, including breaking news updates.
Past broadcasts will be archived on the site.
