Latest News: Study: Television Is Not Even Close to Dead [Trade Roundup]
Best Known As: Television Actor Gist: Charles "Charlie" deWolf Gibson (born March 9, 1943) is the anchor of World News with Charles Gibson, the ABC network's flagship evening newscast. He became anchor on May 29, 2006, when the program was known as ABC World News Tonight. He also anchors the 5 p.m. EST Information Network weekday newscast on ABC News Radio. Under Gibson's leadership, ABC World News beat NBC Nightly News for the first time in several years. The two programs have now been in a dead heat, taking turns at the top among household viewers and the 25–54 age group prized by advertisers. Gibson previously co-anchored ABC's Good Morning America for a span of nineteen years; first from February 1987 to May 1998, then again from January 1999 to June 2006. On September 2, 2009, ABC News announced that Gibson will step down from ABC World News in January 2010, turning the broadcast over to Diane Sawyer. read more about Charles Gibson
