ABC announces convention plans

WE'VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com

ABC news has announced they will be broadcasting all 4 nights of each convention from 10-11 EST. They now join NBC in broadcasting all 4 nights, which is an improvement from 2004 when the networks just broadcast 3 nights.

As of now, CBS is the lone holdout at 3 nights, but Politico notes:

With President Bush now speaking on the first night of the Republican convention, I'm hearing from a source that CBS will likely add an hour on the Monday of each convention, too.
