=== "Expanding news" strategy (2020 - 2023) ===
As Horizon Television launched January 1st, 2020, so did the network's news division, Horizon News. Among the launch programs, Horizon News Tonight. At the time, the program was led by various correspondents who anchored the program from Horizon News bureaus across the country. There was a rough start with formatting, but over time, with the stories and how news was covered, Horizon News Tonight gained a loyal following by delivering in-depth news stories thanks in part of its one-hour duration that no other evening newscast offered, alongside interviews with prominent figures.
=== Hari Sreenivasan era (2023-present) ===
On December 1st, 2022, it was reported that Hari Sreenivasan, anchor for PBS NewsHour Weekend, was considering an offer from Horizon News to anchor its weeknight evening newscast. With the target audience of Horizon Television as a whole, plus the format of the one-hour evening newscast, among several other factors, Sreenivasan formally signed a contract to formally join Horizon News as anchor and managing editor of Horizon News Tonight. Sreenivasan brought a wealth of experience and a reputation for excellence in journalism to the program.
Hari Sreenivasan's arrival marked a new chapter for Horizon News Tonight. He quickly became a trusted face in households across the nation thanks to his calm and measured delivery, alongside his urban personality that he developed while working at PBS in the past. Story selection focused more on politics, global affairs, and interviews with key newsmakers cause audience viewership to grow rapidly. While Horizon Television does not disclose viewership numbers, it was reported by Variety that viewership under the Sreenivasan era of Horizon News Tonight "is in the millions."
