David Marash, known as Dave Marash (born May 3, 1942) is an American television journalist.
Marash garnered considerable attention when he joined Al Jazeera English in January 2006 as the network's Washington, D.C. anchor, thus becoming the de facto American face of the new English-language station. Two years later, in March 2008, he stepped down from his position. Marash explained, "To put it bluntly, the channel that's on now — while excellent, and I plan to be a lifetime viewer — is not the channel that I signed up to do." Specifically, he cited the loss of editorial control and his inability to vouch for content that the network was broadcasting, as reasons for his departure.
Prior to his work at Al Jazeera English, Marash worked with ABC News. Marash came to ABC News from WCBS-TV in New York. Marash had previously worked at New Brunswick, New Jersey station WCTC-AM (1450), where he hosted a nightly talk show, "Dave Marash On Call." Prior to joining WCBS-TV, he was a reporter at WPIX. His last appearance prior to joining Al Jazeera English was on Nightline. He had anchored newscasts at WNBC in New York and WRC-TV in Washington, D.C. during the mid-1980s.
