No doubt they'll bring up what happened in Orlando today as well:

Did this air from 6:30 to 7:30 Eastern? I wonder if all ABC affiliates carried the full hour.

I don't understand why they would've done the 1 hour edition on Friday when the shootings happened on Thursday. ???

To offer more coverage in the aftermath as more facts, and less speculation, began to be available, perhaps?

I doubt the abc affiliates down around Fort Hood area aired the whole hour not sure.

In Phoenix, affiliate KNXV local news follows World News at 6:00 MST. ABC15 went right to their news.

I doubt the abc affiliates down around Fort Hood area aired the whole hour not sure.

I'd be willing to bet ABC stations in that area wiped out primetime programming for at least a couple of days...
