According to CBS, O’Donnell will move to a new role as senior correspondent where she will focus on bigger interviews and reporting.
Norah O’Donnell is leaving the anchor chair at last-place “ CBS Evening News” after the 2024 presidential election, the network said Tuesday.
Norah O’Donnell is stepping down as anchor of “CBS Evening News” and moving to a senior correspondent role.“Together, our team has won Emmy, Murrow, and DuPont awards. We managed to anchor in-studio through COVID; we took the broadcast on the road from aircraft carriers to the Middle East, and around the world. We were privileged to conduct a historic interview with Pope Francis,” O’Donnell said in a note sent to staffers Tuesday.
Despite some big interviews, O’Donnell’s “Evening News” brought in averaged just 4.4 million total viewers in the most recent quarter and less than 600,000 in the 25- to 54-year-old demographic. Like its rivals at ABC and NBC, CBS News has seen its audience shrivel substantially in recent years, often by double-digit percentages quarter to quarter.O’Donnell’s exit is the latest major change at CBS News under CBS News president Wendy McMahon, who is focused on cutting costs and reshaping the network.
