In a bold move, ABC offered Barbara Walters the distinction of being television's first anchorwoman. She joined Harry Reasoner at ABC's anchor desk on October 4th 1976. Though the ratings for ABC's evening news rose slightly, the network remained third in the news race. Under new management, Roone Arledge made major changes and on July 7th, 1978, Reasoner was released form his contract and returned to CBS News.
