Almin Karamehmedovic Named President of ABC News

The longtime executive producer of 'World News Tonight' takes the helm amid strategic shifts and internal challenges.

Karamehmedovic has a history with ABC News dating back to 1988, rising from freelance video editor to senior executive producer.
He succeeds Kim Godwin, who stepped down following a series of controversies and missteps.
Karamehmedovic's leadership style is expected to be more hands-on, contrasting with Godwin's approach.
He faces challenges in managing daytime programming, an area where he has limited experience.
His appointment comes as ABC News prepares for its first presidential debate and navigates changes in viewer habits.
