The Daily Nightly from NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams

About this blog

The Daily Nightly began on May 31, 2005. As Brian wrote in his first post it aims to provide a narrative of the broadcast day and a window into the editorial process at NBC Nightly News. Brian weighs in every weekday and NBC News correspondents and producers post regularly.

Brian Williams became the seventh anchor and managing editor in the history of NBC Nightly News on December 2, 2004. Read his full biography.

Tonight's promoted story and our new look

One hurricane, one house, five bedrooms and 44 people. We'll tell you the story of how one family managed in the wake of Katrina as our cameras documented their struggles and joy.

Regular readers have no doubt noticed that we redesigned this blog late yesterday.  "The Daily Nightly" is now produced using TypePad, a web-based blogging service.  What's that mean for you?  Hopefully, a page that's easier to navigate, easier to link to, and easier to post comments. I reserve the right to edit comments for readability and profanity. 

The mission of the blog remains the same... it's a place for you to learn more about the reporting and decision making that happens every day as we prepare the broadcast for air.
