TOUCHING: David Muir and his 10-Year Journey On Tv – Reveals his Late Father’s Wish and Shares Heartfelt Photo On Air, Moving Viewers to Tears!
David Muir, the veteran anchor of World News Tonight, recently marked an emotional milestone: a decade at the helm of ABC’s flagship news program. Since his debut broadcast on September 1, 2014 — then just 50 years old — David has become one of ABC’s most beloved faces, helping propel the show to the top of national television ratings.
On social media, David shared a treasured throwback photo with his father, Ronald Muir, seated together behind a news desk back in 1987. He captioned it with heartfelt gratitude:
“Ten years ago today I started anchoring World News Tonight. I’m so grateful to this team and to the viewers. I’ve been at this for a bit — my Dad and me, 1987 — our on-air chemistry was off the charts.”
The special anniversary quickly drew warm messages from colleagues and friends alike. Al Roker commented: “You do your family and CNY proud every day.” Close friend Kelly Ripa added playfully: “Congratulations on the fastest 10 years ever. Wow!” Meanwhile, Robin Roberts expressed her pride: “Incredibly proud of you David! Can’t wait for the next ten and beyond,” and Ginger Zee reflected: “What a beautiful moment to reflect — and I can’t wait to see what happens in the next ten years.”
David’s journalism journey began during his college years at Ithaca College, where he interned at Syracuse’s WTVH-TV. From 1994–2000, he became a full-time reporter there, quickly gaining recognition for his fearless international reporting. After a stint at WCVB (2000–2003), he joined ABC News, gradually taking on key roles — from anchoring World News This Morning, World News Saturday, to becoming co-anchor of 20/20.
Over the past ten years, David Muir has not only proven his skill and dedication but also captured the hearts of viewers with his calm presence and passion for journalism — just as he humbly acknowledged: “I’m so grateful to this team and to the viewers.”
