There's a new executive director for ABC News Live as ABC News president Kim Godwin announced in a press release that Seni Tienabeso received a promotion to the position.
In his new role with the network, Tienabeso will supervise day-to-day editorial direction for the channel and concentrate on expanding its original live programming, live events, and specials.
"[Tienabeso] has also played a critical role shaping ABC News Live political and special events coverage and specials," Godwin wrote.
"Since joining the team, Seni has been instrumental in building the profile of the channel leading its primetime live and taped strategy that continues to set ABC News Live apart."
Before joining ABC News Live in 2019, Tienabeso served as a senior producer for "World News Tonight with David Muir," often supervising the show's foreign and social justice stories and anchoring the show when it would cover breaking news.
"As Seni assumes day-to-day oversight of ABC News Live, I am looking forward to his continued editorial leadership and innovative instincts in this expanded role," Godwin added.
ABC News Live executive producers will now report to Tienabeso, who will continue to report to Vice President of Streaming Content Justin Dial and lead the search for a new executive producer of "ABC News Live Prime with Linsey Davis."
