David Muir: ‘World News’ Anchor Learned the Ropes in Boston, Syracuse – IMDb

Must Read

David Muir brings solid credentials as a reporter to his new gig as anchor and managing editor of ABC News’ “World News” flagship broadcast. He honed those skills during his 2000-03 stint as a reporter and anchor at one of the most respected TV stations in the country, Boston’s ABC affiliate, Wcvb-tv, owned by Hearst Television.

Wcvb is well known for its investment in newsgathering and for producing informational and lifestyle programming. It’s one of the few stations in the country to offer a locally produced newsmagazine-esque series, “Chronicle,” in the lucrative 7:30 p.m. weeknight slot.

Execs at Wcvb who knew Muir during his tenure in Beantown were not at all surprised by the news Wednesday of his promotion. Muir will succeed Diane Sawyer on the “World News” desk as of Sept. 2.
