I only knew it as the "Huntley-Brinkley Report". The only Nightly news show with a sponsor that I can remember was ABC's, John Cameron Swazie(sp) sponsored by Timex.

In the mid 1960s, while NBC and CBS had veteran anchors on their news show(Huntley, Brinkley, Cronkite), ABC took a chance with a 20-something "kid". Who was that "kid" hired in 1965 for ABC's nightly news?
