Thank you for writing to the ABC Television Network. When ABC Sports is carrying a live event, ABC News frequently schedules
halftime news briefs as news warrants. In keeping with that, on Monday,
ABC News will broadcast a brief news update anchored by Peter Jennings
during the halftime show of Monday Night Football, which recently began
pre-season telecasts on Monday, August 9.

question = Why are you guys giving an extra half hour to the Republican
National Convention? The Democrats didn't get an extra half hour so why
the deference to the Republicans? First ABC News chose to ignore
stories about Iraq since the handover as requested by the Bush
Administration and now they are giving them an extra half hour which is
totally unfair. I thought ABC News was a fair and impartial news
source. But now I am seeing that it is just like Fox News. I am
officially boycotting this atrocious network until you end your
right-wing leaning news coverage and start being fair and impartial for
once. ABC is the basic cable version of Fox News!

ABC is a disgrace. Keep emailing them and telling them what you think about this extra half hour.
