Turning Point was an ABC News program, aired from 1993 to 1999. Turning Point was an hour-long program on a single topic, making it similar to CBS' 48 Hours, which it ran directly opposite for some of its run. The program tended toward sensational topics, such as former members of Charles Manson's "Family" and much coverage of the O.J. Simpson murder case, which was current for much of the program's run. Major ABC News figures appearing regularly on the program included Diane Sawyer, Forrest Sawyer, Meredith Vieira, and Barbara Walters. This Turning Point is not to be confused with an ABC dramatic anthology program of the same title which ran during the 1952-53 television season.
