Brian Williams, Amazon Prime Video Confirm Election-Night News Special


Brian Williams will host an Election Night special on Amazon's Prime Video that may be seen as a potential entry into news by the streaming giant

Williams, who left NBC News in 2021 after a nearly three-decade run, will lead a one-night special called “Election Night Live with Brian Williams.” The show, which will begin at 5 p.m. eastern on November 5, will be made available to all Amazon customers via Prime Video, regardless of whether they subscribe to the streaming outlet itself. And yet, the digital giant does seem to be dipping its toes into the format after spending months building a presence in sports that includes the NFL’s “Thursday Night Football,” and, soon, regular NBA telecasts. The pair has produced previous editions of the Primetime Emmys, the Super Bowl halftime show, the Tony Awards, the Kennedy Center Honors and presidential inaugural balls.
