CBS Mornings is moving out of its high-profile Times Square studio, just four years after unveiling the space.

CBS reportedly spent tens of millions of dollars building the state-of-the-art studio in Times Square, a prime location.

Last week, CBS Mornings hit a new low in viewership since its relaunch in September 2021, drawing just 1.87 million total viewers over seven days. That’s a 6% drop from the same period last year.

Notably the shift to a more magazine-style presentation and the decision to bring in Maurice DuBois and John Dickerson as anchors on CBS Evening News, replacing longtime host Norah O’Donnell.

“It’s a disaster,” a former CBS News executive told Daily Mail, criticizing the new dual-anchor setup.

Let me save CBS a million in consulting fees. First, I think the DEI female head of the news division and female NorDuh O'Donnell have been relieved of their duties. Radical Feminism doesn't sell.

Second, Woke Gayle King is unsufferable. She and Nate tried to make the morning show "CBS Mornings for Blacks" - with every other story about Black struggles or the first Black to or anything Black instead of providing unbiased entertaining news.

Leftist Activism in "news" doesn't get ratings - send me a check.

If not for Oprah, she never would have the job. She attends more Kennedy Center concerts, Hollywood award shows, and "celebrity" gatherings than anyone, it's like that's the reason she exists.

Bring back Captain Kangaroo...

Why they went to morning “news” nonsense in the first place way back in the 80s is beyond me.

She’s like that character ‘Zelig’ in the Woody Allen movie of the same name. She’s just ‘there’, everywhere and anywhere something’s happening........................

Well, telling Americans that 2024 was the last Presidential election they will ever have if Trump is elected doesn't really bolster your credibility as a serious and honest person.

Ahh, back in those heady, heady days of the exciting new woke dawn of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. The Democrats were making plans for an eight-lane highway to a dazzling future of left-wing, multicultural, progressive nirvana, funded by endless taxpayer looting er... debt.

And their friends in the then-strong MSM were going to be helping with the joyous struggle, working every day to jam the vision down everyone's throats.

Everybody else is just green, have you seen the chart?
It's a hell of a start, it could be made into a monster
If we all pull together as a team
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it riding the gravy train
