After The Deadlines

After The Deadlines was an American evening news program of the early 1950s. It was broadcast on the ABC network from April 1951 to October 1952.

Typical of evening television news programs of the era, it lasted fifteen minutes. After the Deadlines aired at 7:00 PM, earlier than its competitors, Camel News Caravan (NBC, 7:45 PM) and Douglas Edwards with the News (CBS, 7:30 PM) in an attempt to draw news viewers from these more-established networks. Its predecessor was News and Views, and its successor was All-Star News and, eventually, ABC World News, as seen in this list:

In 1951 and 1952, most American households did not have television receivers, and ABC was a distinctly minor network compared to NBC and CBS, so After the Deadlines was not a major factor in the overall news business, and the identity of the anchor or anchors of After the Deadlines may be lost to history.
