CBS Evening News viewership has plummeted below 4 million as Tony Dokoupil’s struggling tenure continues. The broadcast pulled in roughly 3.8 million viewers for the week of April 6, marking the second dip below the critical 4 million threshold in three weeks. What’s driving this historic ratings collapse, and can CBS reverse course?

1. Bari Fucking Weiss strikes (out) again

who knew?

[newdeal2]

4. Doing her job to drive CBS News out of business

That’s what I seriously think she was hired to do. Eventually the math won’t make sense with such low numbers and that will give Ellison cover to completely gut the news division and focus on entertainment.

2. CBS made a big mistake taking Norah O'Donnell off the evening news.

My wife, and I loved her.

6. Me too!

7. She joined Bari and Trump at Ellison's party, I can't stand her.

10. Trump gloated with glee when CBS

took her off the evening news.

14. Then what is she doing dining with the creeps? Dinner with Stephen Miller, Trump, Blanche?

"In addition to senior members of the Trump administration, those in attendance included Bari Weiss, editor in chief of CBS News; former "CBS Evening News" anchor Norah O'Donnell; Tom Cibrowski, the CBS News president; Jan Crawford, the network's chief legal correspondent; chief White House correspondent Nancy Cordes; and Weijia Jiang, a White House correspondent at CBS News who is president of the White House Correspondents' Association."

"Ellison's dinner guests also included Todd Blanche, who assumed the role of acting U.S. attorney general after Trump fired Pam Bondi earlier this month. As noted by the Times, "Mr. Blanche oversees the Justice Department, whose antitrust division is set to review the Warner Bros. acquisition." Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Stephen Miller, deputy White House chief of staff, also attended the function, according to the report."

20. '60 Minutes': Norah O'Donnell Is Attacked by Trump in Explosive CBS Interview

“The so-called manifesto is a stunning thing to read, Mr. President,” O’Donnell said. “He appears to reference a motive in it. He writes this quote, ‘Administration officials, they are targets.’ And he also wrote this, ‘I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.’ What’s your reaction to that?”


Trump responded, “Well, I was waiting for you to read that because I knew you would because you’re… horrible people. Yeah, he did write that. I’m not a rapist. I didn’t rape anybody.”

O’Donnell then turned it back on the president, asking, “Oh, do you think he was referring to you?”

3. He getting near Fox News territory

5. Same will happen to CNN.......................

8. I don't watch either of them anymore. Why bother? I take special pleasure not watching CBS though.

9. Freedom of the Depressed

Larry Ellison needs more money.

11. The world is exploding but we see dogs doing silly things. Go CBS

[Historic NY]

12. Come on people we can do better....

head for 3million

13. I'm beginning to think the CBS and potential CNN buys are catch and kill operations

They don't really care about ratings or advertising dollars because they are subsidized by other money making ventures. Drive viewers away and only be left with propaganda for those who do tune in. Takes two national news organizations out of the picture.

15. CBS is now the National Enquirer. Good job Bari.

[Rebl2]

16. Hope

viewership keeps falling. I refuse to watch their Monday-Saturday morning news show as well. I will admit I watch Sunday morning. Record it and watch the parts I am interested in.

17. Katy Tur's Husband. She's not one of the highest rated MSNOW Hosts.

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

18. Crash and burn assholes. CBS was my main evening news source for decades. No more.

19. Next Stockholder Meeting Should Be Interesting

Though I won't hold my breath. I thought the CBA changes were to keep Trump happy. Better to loose some money and keep the orange turd focused on some other shiny object.

21. Bari wasn't hired to get ratings

she was hired to appease Trump so Ellison could do what he wants without regulatory interference.

22. they are destroying it.
