CBS Thinking of Replacing Jeff Glor with Norah O'Donnell on Evening News

These changes, reportedly under review by incoming president Susan Zirinsky, suggest the network might not be happy with how ratings have dipped since Glor became the show’s lead anchor in 2017.

“...his strange, plastic looking hair.”

He has a face and hair made for radio.

Nancy Cordes and Paula Reid (both of CBS) are also bad. As partisan as you can get. I was actually surprised how Major Garrett flipped from being right leaning on Fox News to so left leaning on CBS. I’m guessing he was a leftist all along and just pretending on Fox News. He fooled me.

Their problem isn't who's reading the news current event show, it's who's writing it. Leave Glor and get J.K. Rowling as the writer - that'll make ratings soar. JK may be beyond their budget, but I'm sure they can do better than the staff they have. Maybe get Letterman to build a writing staff that will kill in the 6pm slot - he did pretty good on the late night slot ratings even if the show is closer to reality than CBS producers would like.

Norah O’Donnell...

Rosie O’Donnell...

One is much easier on the eyes. Although who even watches the network newscasts?

It isn't the reader. It's the script.

I’ve never heard of him.

No kidding, Dan Rather was about the last MSM talking head I can remember.

One MSM anchor I actually don’t hate is Tom Llamas on ABC news.

Plus he's larger than frogs.

Fits with the latest Leftist meme that you aren’t qualified for anything but Relief Janitor if you don’t have a vagina.

LLamas are very cute. But alpacas are cuter.

I like the fact that the Brits refer to them as ‘news readers’ as opposed to reporters or anchors.

Speaking of Newsreaders, whatever happened to Melissa Theuriau?

I would watch her, even if I didn’t know a lick of French.

I wonder if that’s a toupee.

His hair is just so odd.

I found this in yahoo question....

he clearly does...though it may be done to strategically combine with/compliment whatever real hair he has left. it’s a bit of a distraction if you ask me. surprised that the network hasn’t stepped in/up to either direct him on a more natural looking rug or to come out of the closet as a baldie (which there is nothing wrong with, by the way).

"Jeff Glor"?

Sounds like a robot.

His wife's name is "Nicole Glab."

Should have hyphenated the name to "Glor-Glab" or "Glab-Glor."

It’s like the Dan Ackroyd movie version of Dragnet.
Where characters have names like Pep Streebek and Emil Muzz.

Because THE NAMES WERE CHANGED TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT!
