10 million Americans get the news from Brian Williams

Broadcast: Midday, 01/18/2007, 12:06 p.m.

ABC News used to boast that it was "Where more Americans get their news than from any other source." That's not true anymore. It's a distinction that now belongs to NBC and its anchor Brian Williams. Williams talked about taking over the anchor chair Jan. 6 at the New York Times' annual Arts & Leisure Weekend.
