It is an eventful time at CBS News to say the least. CBS Mornings is seeing real growth against its well-entrenched rivals on ABC and NBC. CBS News Streaming is focusing on the election with daily program America Decides and the CBS Evening News franchise “Eye on America” is expanding from a weekly segment to four nights a week and a presence throughout the CBS News and Stations portfolio.
Overseeing it all is Ingrid Ciprián-Matthews, who was named CBS News president last August, promoted from executive VP of newsgathering. Though the competition is as fierce as it has ever been, she believes it’s an ideal time to deliver CBS News content to America. “It’s a great opportunity to not only maintain the legacy of CBS News but also create more opportunities for all of our journalists to reach many more people on every single platform,” she said.
