‘CBS Evening News’ Gets Streaming Companion ‘CBS Evening News Plus’
A retooled 'CBS Evening News' will get a companion streaming program called 'CBS Evening News Plus,' anchored by John Dickerson
Already, the new half-hour program, which will be anchored by John Dickerson, will appear on KCBS in Los Angeles, KPIX in San Francisco, KOVR in Sacramento and WFOR in Miami. From TV to streaming… from podcasting to magazines and books… John has a command of distilling news and storylines for diverse audiences amid a firehose of information and headlines,” said Wendy McMahon, president and CEO of CBS’ news, stations and syndication operations, in a memo to staffers. A new on-air team that includes weathercaster Lonnie Quinn and Washington-based “Face The Nation” moderator Margaret Brennan, aims to break news and offer more depth, rather than trying to run down dozens of items that surfaced earlier in the day in the space of less than 30 minutes.
