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.

NBC News staked a new flag in the blogosphere today. World Blog aims "to provide a dynamic look at world events and trends -- both big and small -- from NBC News correspondents, producers, and bureaus around the world." So far, launch day features posts from Baghdad, Bangkok, Beijing, Ethiopia and Germany, with more to come from Cuba. World Blog replaces Blogging Baghdad, but the editor tells me that she expects frequent posts from Richard Engel and the rest of the NBC News team in Baghdad. So those of you who loved Blogging Baghdad, don't despair. News from Iraq will be a major portion of World Blog.
I'll link here in The Daily Nightly to posts that touch on topics reported by Nightly News and I'll add a perma-link shortly in the boxes to the right, but for now, just remember WorldBlog.MSNBC.com.

Early Nightly is up
You guys should work more international or 'world' news into the usual tickers and broadcasts.
FoxNews already has the myopic nationalist demographic...you should shoot for a the worldly liberal market :)

Seemed cool! I can see why the EU is so worried about their supply of oil from Russia. I have ultimate faith in the Europeans (above anyone else) to develop the technology that will help the world cope with peak oil and climate change. I know they're not too proud of their own EU right now, but I SURE AM! Where else can you point to an area of the world with so much progress and so much talent? Heck, many of the world's greatest engineering achievements are in Europe and their building the new ITER Fusion reactor - perhaps our best hope for clean energy! They make me proud just to be human! I wish them the best.

Now that's a smart idea. I will be viewing your reports of world news. I should have thought of that as the discussion was about how to have more coverage in such a short time on the air. Well I guess it's the age thing. Thanks again.

Sounds interesting! So we'll get more international opinions? That would be excellent.
