October 29th, 1956-July 31st, 1970.

The Huntley-Brinkley report replaced the Camel News Caravan with John Cameron Swayze on October 29th, 1956. Originally a fifteen-minute news broadcast it was expanded to a half-hour on September 9th, 1963, a week after the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite expanded to a half-hour. Chet Huntley was in New York City and David Brinkley was in Washington, DC.

What goes into making a TV news show? Chet Huntley and David Brinkley are on hand to guide viewers behind the scenes. They explain the techniques of coordinating communications-satellite pictures, transatlantic cable film, and taped and filmed reports flown in by plane. The two also preview some of the features of their daily half-hour news show which debuts tomorrow.

Ray Shearer is the host.
