He would work as a news anchor in Lynchburg, VA, before joining ABC News in 1975, carving out a niche for himself covering the House of Representatives. He would go on to help host World News Tonight, Nightline, 20/20, and Good Morning America, before hosting World News with Charles Gibson in 2005. During that time, he would co-moderate a 2008 presidential debate. In 2009, Gibson announced his retirement, leaving the anchor desk at World News to Diane Sawyer.
