I do not mind the show. A left wing slant, but not a overly left view. I only watch Nightline when they have an interesting guest or investigation. Nightline is mostly a run of the mill news show. The usual panel discussion, special guests, and the commentators own summary of the news topic. The special investigation segments is Nightlines saving grace. The investigation segments are usually about what the public should watch for. Nightline proves a News show can inform and alert the public. I love the heads up about scumbags and their evil antics. 6 out of 10. Not bad for late night TV. Tom is a decent anchor.
