The current Evening Magazine that airs in the Seattle area is still produced to this day by NBC affiliate KING-TV. Launched on that station in 1986, that show airs at 7:00 p.m. Pacific Time, with a replay airing later on sister cable station Northwest Cable News. The show focuses on local events, places, and human-interest stories. When Evening Magazine / PM Magazine was still on the air nationwide, KING would use some stories from the national feed for their own Evening Magazine.
The show's longtime host, John Curley, emotionally signed off for the last time on April 23, 2009, after hosting nearly 4,000 shows over 14 years. This makes him the longest solo host of a television show in Pacific Northwest history.
On December 9, 2009, former KING morning news anchor Meeghan Black became the new host of Evening Magazine.

“If I’d written all the truth I knew for the past ten years, about 600 people—including me—would be rotting in prison cells from Rio to Seattle today. Absolute truth is a very rare and dangerous commodity in the context of professional journalism.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
