The 24 April 2015 edition of NBC Nightly News stood out for its coverage of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide. Anchor Lester Holt gave a 27-second news brief on the "somber hundredth anniversary being marked around the world today – remembering what Pope Francis recently called the first genocide of the 20th century." ABC's World News Tonight and CBS Evening News both failed to cover the centenary of the mass murders.
