'World News' EP Uses the Web for More 'Real Feel'
While the new “World News with Diane Sawyer” premiered on ABC last night, one longtime Web production — the daily World News Webcast — is taking a break.
“We put the Webcast on hiatus,” show EP Jon Banner tells WebNewser. Banner has added new elements to Diane Sawyer’s Web presence including “The Conversation.”
“‘The Conversation’ is a natural extension of what’s happening on air. And allows us to talk to some of our great top-notch beat correspondents in a way that’s not always possible on the broadcast,” says Banner.
The online chat is recorded on Webcam, in the newsroom, or wherever the correspondent or anchor may be.
