Westin: “New Era For World News Tonight”

“We are embarking on a new era for World News Tonight,” ABC News president David Westin said yesterday. Here are some of the other comments:

> On his new anchor team: “They bring a curiosity and a dedication and enthusiasm for what needs to be done, and they’re the right team to take us forward. My clear goal through all of this was to make sure that we had a structure for the future.” (LAT)

> On the expanding WNT: “We want to reach people anytime, anywhere and to any device. This is a major statement that we mean what we say.” (NYDN)

> Looking forward: “This is the right team to take us forward. My clear goal is to make sure we have the strategy for the future and not just the past.” (AP)
