Less than a year after taking over the anchor seat at CBS Evening News, John Dickerson revealed Monday that he was not only leaving the weeknight news broadcast within the next two months but that his time at the Tiffany Network was coming to an end after 16 years.
Dickerson’s departure comes as Bari Weiss, the network’s new “anti-woke” editor-in-chief, has been openly looking to revamp CBS News’ perennially third-place evening program – which has seen her courting Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier and CNN mainstay Anderson Cooper to take over the telecast.
