What happens

Sky World News Tonight (also known on air as World News Tonight) is an international news programme transmitted between 20:00 and 21:00 UK time weekdays on Sky News from 24 October 2005 until 10 July 2006. It was launched on 24 October 2005 as part of a revamp of the channel but ended less than twelve months later. The production team was responsible for compiling its three main features: Sky World News and the Sky Review and Business report. From its beginnings in the autumn of 2005, this programme was shown right through until July 2006. The show was cancelled on 10 July 2006, along with The Sky Report, as part of a minor re-shuffle of the Sky News schedules, its replacement was Sky News with Martin Stanford. The show's presenter James Rubin can still be seen on Sky News as a World News Commentator although World News Tonight is no more. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
