A new lineup of daytime programming will premiere with “Here Comes The Sun with Tracy Smith,” “Lee Cowan from CBS Sunday Morning,” “The Uplift” anchored by Tony Dokoupil, and “On The Road.”
Starting at 6:00 PM ET, the evening lineup with “Red and Blue,” the nightly political program will have its team of CBS News’ Washington anchors and correspondents such as the newest member Robert Costa, Ben Tracy, Christina Ruffini, David Martin, Catherine Herridge, Scott MacFarlane, Errol Barnett, Ed O’Keefe, Jan Crawford, Major Garrett, Margaret Brennan, Nancy Cordes, Nicole Killion, Weijia Jiang, and Jeff Pegues.
At 7:00 PM ET, the CBS News Streaming Network will live stream a prime-time news hour, recapping the top stories of the day, leveraging its New York headquarters, plus Washington and Los Angeles bureaus. Then, at 8:00 PM ET, popular content like “60 Minutes,” “48 Hours,” and original programs such as “Person-To-Person With Norah O’Donnell,” “Eye On America,” and a new documentary slate with the first one anchored by Gayle King. Later on, at 10:00 PM ET, the “CBS Evening News with Norah O’Donnell” will air.
Neeraj Khemlani and Wendy McMahon, presidents and co-heads of CBS News and Stations were the first to announce the rebranding.
“We’re unlocking the power of CBS News – streaming the best of our reporting and storytelling on television to viewers everywhere,” said Khemlani. “From up-to-the-minute reporting from our new live news desk, signature interviews by Gayle King and Norah O’Donnell, adventures on CBS Sunday Morning and 60 Minutes, true crime on 48 Hours – and reporting out of Washington to Kyiv to Beijing – we’re delivering a 24/7 experience with quality journalism from the best news brands in the business.”
“CBS News and Stations’ local streaming channels are growing at a rapid pace and will continue this year through the significant expansion of coverage in all of our markets, giving us an additional 15,000 hours of live local news per year by the end of 2022,” said McMahon. “Our commitment reflects the relevance and importance of local news to audiences across the country. We are excited to launch CBS News Miami today and look forward to completing the rollout of our local streaming channels later this year when we debut CBS News Detroit. Unifying our brands and newsgathering resources positions us to deliver the best local-to-national-to global streaming news experience to our consumers however they want to watch.”
