ABC World News Tonight with David Muir Full Broadcast - Nov. 08, 2026

Things we can learn from the video

Press to jump

2:07ABC reports six deaths and 16 injuries in the Kraków market-square shooting, which authorities are investigating as terrorism.
6:33Trump signals further staffing changes as Stephen Miller becomes chief of staff and Dana White is considered for press secretary.
8:53Incoming members of Congress emphasize living costs while close Senate counts continue in Mississippi and Alaska.
14:58The broadcast turns to NASA's recruitment of astronauts for its next era of exploration.
19:13DJ Blake describes music as his superpower after overcoming a fear of loud noises.
20:00Blake's mother recalls a mentor's practical help; Blake explains his wish to make other people feel included.

Blake Rouen wants the people listening to his music to feel that they belong. "And I know what it's like being included. I want to give other people a chance to feel included as well," he says in ABC's closing "America Strong" feature.

The 19-year-old, known as DJ Blake, is autistic. ABC tells how someone once afraid of loud noises became the person supplying the soundtrack at basketball games, weddings and birthday parties.

His mother remembers a local mentor giving them a starting point: a few DJing basics, guidance on equipment and room for Blake to explore. Practice did the rest. "It was a little hard, but then it got easier," Blake says.

The feature arrives near the end of the November 8 edition of World News Tonight, anchored by Linsey Davis despite David Muir's name in the program title. Posted today, the full broadcast drew roughly 745,000 views in its first 13 hours. That audience is for the whole newscast, not a separate count for Blake's segment.

Earlier reports cover the Kraków attack, White House staffing changes and NASA's astronaut recruitment. Blake's story begins at 19:13, offering a different kind of ambition: "Music is my superpower."
