The @NewsHour set record-breaking viewership during the political conventions -- nearly 19 million viewers on YouTube, totaling more than 40 million views. That's on top of the roughly 2 million nightly broadcast viewers. A huge thanks to our loyal audience for the support. pbs.org/newshour/press-relea…

Tonight, we're marking a major transition at the NewsHour. Russ Clarkson, who has led our news team for nearly 25 years, is retiring. His wisdom and experience have been invaluable, and his presence will be deeply missed.

The American people’s personal data should not end up in the hands of the Chinese Communist Party. I recently spoke with @SumangaliS on @BBCWorld about the dangers of #TikTok.

A new chapter is starting for me. After thirty incredible years at the BBC, I’m leaving tomorrow - to join the growing movement for reparatory justice for the Caribbean. Thank you to my beloved colleagues and to our amazing audience. I couldn’t be more grateful to you all.

Apparently walking briskly for as little as 11 minutes a day can keep you from dying prematurely. That's what a team from @Cambridge_Uni says. We put @jamesbbcnews to the test on @BBCWorld News America.

Ah - Watch @BBCNews special coverage of President Biden’s State of the Union address tonight - with @AmandaRenteria @Ron_Christie @bbcnadatawfik on screen and @dmatmorrison @AidenJohnsonDC in the gallery, we are going to do our level best to cut through the usual spin!

There are times I miss covering the White House, but state of the union day is not one. Hours of pre-spin, hours of post-spin, lots of sitting around and waiting. Lots of punditry. Lots of canned responses. Almost like Election Day itself. But then at least you get real numbers!
