But during a recent appearance on Live with Kelly and Mark<\/em>, Muir addressed the rumors directly \u2014 and his response immediately reassured millions of loyal viewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With calm confidence and sincerity, the veteran journalist made it clear that he has no plans to leave ABC News anytime soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In today\u2019s television industry, major anchor changes often happen quickly and without much warning.
