The Tyndall Report monitors the weekday nightly newscasts of the three American broadcast television networks: ABC World News with David Muir (formerly Charles Gibson and subsequently Diane Sawyer), CBS Evening News with Norah O'Donnell (formerly Katie Couric and subsequently Scott Pelley and subsequently Jeff Glor) and NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt (formerly Brian Williams).

All external links on this site (unless otherwise indicated) are to free advertising-supported streaming video of network TV news.

Each day, Andrew Tyndall blogs the three newscasts. He has been monitoring television news for 20 years. He claims to be the only person on the planet who has personally watched every single weekday network nightly newscast since the summer of 1987. Other people go on vacation: he records them all and logs the news he missed into his database when he returns.
