At the top of the year, ABC News announced that its president
James Goldston would be stepping away from his role in March. Under Goldston s leadership, ABC s
World News Tonight became the nation s most watched evening news program. Adding on,
Good Morning America became the country s most watched morning news program. Not to mention, the network has launched a 24-hours news platform known as ABC News Live. With his departure, there were big shoes that needed to be filled and fast.
“It’s a really tough decision,” Goldston said as he stepped down.
“I’ve loved every day of my 17 years at ABC News, but in recent times I’ve always assumed that after this extraordinary election cycle, which we’ve covered at a full sprint for four years, it would be time for a change. After a great deal of reflection over the last few months, I’m ready for a new adventure.”
