News and Views (television)

News and Views was an early American evening news program. Broadcast on ABC from 1948 to 1951, it was ABC's first evening news program and one of the first such programs on any television network; Both CBS and NBC also initiated their evening news programs (respectively CBS Television News and Camel News Caravan, called Camel Newsreel Theatre at first) that same year, both debuting a few months before the first broadcast of News and Views on August 11, 1948.

The co-anchors (not called that, as that meaning of "anchor" was not yet extant) were H. R. Baukhage and Jim Gibbons. Baukhage was a veteran radio broadcaster whose staccato baritone and gruff and abrupt sign-on, "Baukhage talking", was familiar to radio listeners of that era. Jim Gibbons was less well known.

Typical of evening television news programs of the era, it ran for fifteen minutes. Its successor was After The Deadlines and, ultimately, ABC World News, as seen in this list:
