- Despite facing criticism for being dull and elitist, the program garnered a loyal audience and expanded to become the country's first national, hour-long nightly news broadcast in 1983.

Quick Glance: Manipulated Images of Trump with Black Individuals
- Supporters of Donald Trump are circulating AI-generated images of the former president with black voters. The intentions behind these images are to enhance Trump's popularity within the black community, yet they are all fabrications.
- Leading up to the 2024 Presidential Election, an increase in such creations of black Trump supporters is surfacing on social media. One image depicts Trump embracing multiple black individuals, although it is an AI creation by the Mark Kaye Show that was shared on Facebook with over a million followers.
- The use of AI-generated deepfakes in politics may continue to be problematic, as politicians like Trump benefit from them. These artificial representations are already contributing to the spread of misinformation and pose a challenge to the integrity of the electoral process.
- Despite his rise in support among black voters, Trump's association with extremist groups like Turning Point USA is concerning. The utilization of AI-generated deepfakes in politics may persist as a problem, with politicians such as Trump reaping the advantages from them.
