History
The program commenced broadcasting on 22 July 2010, the same evening on the launch of ABC News 24, with then host Scott Bevan presenting its first edition. The program originally aired at 9pm to 10pm and had a strong focus on overseas news.
The World was originally produced from the ABC Ultimo Centre in Sydney before moving to the ABC Southbank Centre in Melbourne in early 2014 and with this change it moved to a later time-slots from 10.00pm to 11.00pm along with new hosts Jim Middleton and Zoe Daniel.
In September 2014, ABC received budget cuts from the Federal Government, leaving Jim Middleton to accept a redundancy package and Zoe Daniel moved back into ABC News reporting duties.[1] The program managed to survive the budget cuts with Beverley O'Connor taking over as the permanent host, while still focusing on overseas news abroad the format was slightly modified to incorporate more localised stories from around Australia.
