Charles Gibson, chief news anchor of ABC’s World News, has announced he’ll be stepping down at the end of the year. Gibson took over as anchor on World News after Peter Jennings passed away and then Bob Woodruff was severely wounded in an attack in Iraq. Here’s what Gibson wrote in an e-mail:

“It has not been an easy decision to make. This has been my professional home for almost 35 years,” he wrote. “And I love this news department, and all who work in it, to the depths of my soul.”
Gibson helped stabilize World News and boost it’s ratings making this the second time he helped rescue ABC news. He was a co-host on Good Morning America with Joan Lunden, and returned in 1999 with Diane Sawyer to help revive the show. It has since then became a huge money maker for the network’s news division.
Charles Gibson will be missed, but I’m sure he’ll enjoy retirement.
