I totally doubt it. Considering he worked closely with her many times during his decade+ with CBS (as said in the linked article), my guess is she more than probably won't and he'll last longer than that. 1

I hope your right, but it has been noted on this forum multiple times that morale is at an all time low at CBS. I wish Adam well and hopes he makes the CBSEN successful but history says otherwise.
newsanchor26 107 Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 New CBS Evening News graphics will debut on Monday, August 29. The look will be in line with the new CBS deconstructed eye look that has been rolling out. 3

ATLNewsExpert 460 Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 I've seen some decent mocks on YT (and here on TVNT as well) showing what the Evening News might look like with the modern CBS brand with graphics and an intro. Perhaps some might be possible accurate predictions...

Superdude 108 Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 CBSEN will fail forever opposite the other two, they really should move the newscast earlier to 5:30 or even 4:30. They should also consider adopting a more tabloid "Inside Edition" format in contrast to the other traditional newscast. If it bleeds, it leads. Worked wonders on the local level with Miami's WSVN. If all that fails just make it a 10-15 minute insert that can be placed into the local news blocks whenever and call it a day. 3 4
Kenneth Kissel 283 Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 (edited) Is anyone else sad that the old graphics are now gone. It is also fitting that the the final time these graphics are shown. Major Garrett is anchoring instead of Norah. Speaks to the true downfall of the CBS Evening News for the last several years. Edited August 26, 2022 by Kenneth Kissel 7
maddog363 22 Posted August 26, 2022 Posted August 26, 2022 Heavy emphasis on arrows throughout the newscast, as well as more infographic changes (including the font being switched to TT Norms) 1 4

Main anchors not showing up for the final newscast of a graphics package being part of the downfall of a long-running network evening news program is certainly a new one.

It would have been nice to see Norah on the last day of the package. As people have said many times on this fourm, Norah is the reason why the CBS Evening News is in last place, (and more then normal) I don't remember the ratings ever being this bad for Katie Couric, Scott Pelley, Dan Rather, Anthony Mason, Jeff Glor, or anyone else . However, I actually enjoy when Major Garrett is on so that was nice to see. Edited August 26, 2022 by Kenneth Kissel

24994J 5619 Posted August 27, 2022 Author Posted August 27, 2022 FOR THE RECORD... 'World News' returned to 'World News Tonight' BETWEEN permanent anchors. Sawyer retired from 'World News' on a Friday, the weekend shows maintained status quo, it had a generic 'World News Tonight' open on Labor Day Monday, and he debuted on Tuesday, with his name on the program. Anyway... 3
Weeters 1969 Posted August 27, 2022 Posted August 27, 2022 The news desk is sacred, and the main anchors should be chained to it. Having a "personal life" is not allowed. 3 3 6
