Despite both Mornings and the EN’s ratings struggles, there’s too much money at stake for the network to cede 7-9am and 6:30/5:30p to the stations.

Oh no! All three were great! CBS Saturday Mornings was the best of the morning shows on weekend broadcast.

Gayle will leave CBS Mornings, but is expected to stay at CBS News.

Honestly, if that ends up as the plan, then they should cancel the Saturday program if they won't offer anything original to watch. If people want to re-watch stuff from the week, there's YouTube and the CBS website they can go to.

Keep Maurice, but dump the format for what has become the modern-traditional evening news format that NBC and ABC are using. Accept that you will always be in 3rd place, but you're also stuck with far less overhead than the competition. Set it and forget it. The long-form stories CBS generally does well at does not work in the attention deficit ordered society Social Media has curated... Leave those on 60 Minutes and Sunday Morning. However, constantly changing the show keeps sinking them lower. If they had never pulled John from FTN, he would still be there today, and be doing very well.

Its pretty stunning that the man with a million jobs at CBS is about to be gone. John is a qualified journalist but he was shoehorned into several anchor positions he wasn't right for like Evening News and CTM. Bringing Norah Back is not the answer IMO. She didn't click the first time, why would that happen now? No matter what they do, the show will be in third place. Keep the current quality format with Maurice as solo anchor OR give the time back to affiliates. I've been saying from the beginning, Maurice should be skeptical of accepting anything network.

That's my guess as well. Reportedly, they have already shifted oversight of the program to the weekday team. I can't see them investing a lot of money into developing a brand new program if the idea is to cut cost/save money.

I almost wonder if Saturdays will be pre-taped on Fridays using the weekday talent and be primarily a "best of" of the stories that ran during the week.

More changes at CBS: Saturday Morning to be reworked, with both Dana and Michelle leaving the network as well as correspondent Deb Patta https://deadline.com/2025/10/paramount-layoffs-hit-cbs-news-morning-and-evening-streaming-shows-canceled-saturday-am-to-be-overhauled-johannesburg-bureau-closed-1236601248/

So there are some changes to BBC News morning schedule because it will be airing on the domestic feed instead of Breakfast. Good to see Martine Croxall gets a regular slot again, their most popular domestic presenter. Also, last night and this morning, it seems like they removed or reduced the blue light in the newsroom. https://cleanfeed.thetvroom.com/23369/news/uk-bbc-news-channel-to-take-global-feed-at-breakfast/

When the 10pm News team is on air right before GDNY. Baseball game ended at 3am. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1Fhz9FbLGU/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Good to see her doing well. She sorta disappeared after leaving the station she’s not active on social media.

How the heck did Circle City get WRTV instead of Hearst, Graham, Weigel, or even Gray?

No surprise his job was literally in danger. Question is what happens to Maurice.

John Dickerson is leaving CBS before the end of the year: https://variety.com/2025/tv/news/john-dickerson-exit-cbs-news-1236561995/

WJBK 11pm (CBS era April 1994)

is it me or does every host era for the CBS Evening News get shorter? The duo of John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois might be, the shortest host era that CBS Evening News ever had, even shorter than Jeff Glor.

I mean, it's very well-known and established that the top 3 markets were unaffected.

As will many people whose names we don’t know and will suffer as a result.

The legendary Pierre Robert, who was with Philly's WMMR since 1981, has passed away at 70: https://radioinsight.com/headlines/316174/radio-remembers-pierre-robert/

Not only that, Dana Jacobson and Michelle Miller will leave the network and that's a darn shame.

Layoffs at CBS News: Johannesburg bureau to close; EN Plus and Mornings Plus canceled; and an overhaul of Saturday Morning: https://deadline.com/2025/10/paramount-layoffs-hit-cbs-news-morning-and-evening-streaming-shows-canceled-saturday-am-to-be-overhauled-johannesburg-bureau-closed-1236601248/
