Goldston Looks Forward To “Enhancing Nightline’s Reputation” In The Years Ahead

James Goldston isn’t available for interviews today, so we can’t ask him about the future of Nightline. Here is his carefully-crafted comment from this morning’s press release:

“I am delighted and honored to be joining the Nightline team. It is a show with a rich and vibrant heritage, and I’m very much looking forward to working with everyone at ‘Nightline’ to maintain and enhance its reputation in the years ahead.”

> Update: 2:33pm: “Goldston is expected to remain based in New York but travel frequently to Washington, which is home to the “Nightline” studio and the bulk of its staff,” TV Week adds.
