ABC Newsannounced recently that Ted Koppel was leaving "Nightline" at the end of this year, after a more than two-decade run. Since then, there have been many reports that the network was taping pilots in various formats, including one with a nightclub set and smoke machine, to take over the Nightline slot. Could this audiotape be the soundtrack of the pilot that finally convinced Koppel to leave? Only your mp3 player knows for sure.
