		Even though I don't care for CNN that much and Fox make no bones about where it is coming from, anything is better than watching this asshole who is a mouthpiece for the Democratic Party.
		Yes,the CBS Evening News jumped the shark long ago and we are all the poorer for it.That's what happens when anchors sell out their reputation for another 20 pieces of silver.
		CBS was far and away the best news organization of the big three, but it slipped after 2000 (incidentally, for many years Rather was the only anchor that actually was the managing editor of his news show).

	'CBS Evening News' Hits Ratings Low (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		NEW YORK 7.01.2003 "CBS Evening News" marked a low point in a storied history last week _ its smallest average audience in at least 10 years, perhaps ever.
		Discounting holidays and weeks when the news was pre-empted, researchers going back to 1993 could not find a worse week for the "CBS Evening News." Ratings for these flagship newscasts have been steadily eroding, so you would probably have to go back to the early days of television to find a lesser-watched week.
		The serious news of the Bush administration _ the terrorist attacks, subsequent wars and economic troubles _ have demanded a toughness from the evening newscasts and NBC has responded, he said.

		CBS was nicknamed Al-CBS by several conservative weblogs, referring to the Arab news channel Al-Jazeera, and was criticized for what they perceive is unbalanced coverage of the War on Iraq.
		However, even today, the ratings of the "big 3" network evening news programs totaled together equal ten times the ratings of the highest rated cable television news program.
		Since the early 1990s the CBS Evening News has been carried by Sky News in the UK, Ireland and other countries (see article for details), usually at 12:30 AM British time.

		Dan Rather announced Tuesday that he will relinquish his "CBS Evening News" anchor duties March 9, ending a 24-year run as the most visible presence on "the Tiffany Network" at a time when the big-three network newscasts are rapidly losing their hold on the public.

		CBS News later acknowledged that the authenticity of the documents could not be substantiated, and Rather apologized on air.

		NBC's "Nightly News," where Brian Williams has replaced Tom Brokaw, is also down 7 percent in viewers from the same six weeks last year but remains the top-rated evening news broadcast.

		News can be reported by a variety of sources, such as newspapers, television and radio programs, wire services, and web sites.
		News reporting is a type of journalism, typically written or broadcast in news style.
		Even in those situations where objectivity is expected, it is difficult to achieve, and individual journalists may fall foul of their own personal bias, or succumb to commercial or political pressure.

	CBS, what is the frequency? By Jack Shafer - Slate Magazine
		In 1980, 75 percent of televisions in use during the dinner hour were airing an evening news broadcast from one of three networks.
		Even if Tisch's cost-cutting harmed CBS News, by 1993 Rather's show was still neck and neck with ABC for the No. 2 position in the ratings and within shouting distance of No. 1, NBC.
		One reason behind the evening news fade is that it's still scheduled for an era when moms stayed at home and cooked for dad, who didn't have a long commute.

		It was the first time since the week ending Aug. 3, 2001, that CBS' evening newscast has been in second place.
		The folks at ABC News noted that while CBS passed them for the week, it was just one week, and that ABC drew more viewers with the advertiser-desired news audience of 25- to 54-year-olds.
		CBS' move also comes after a period of turmoil at ABC's "World News Tonight." In the past year, anchor Peter Jennings died of lung cancer, Bob Woodruff and Elizabeth Vargas were named anchors of the show, then Woodruff was injured in a roadside bombing in Iraq.

		CBS has also talked about dramatically changing the broadcast's format, but has given no indication of when this will be done.
		Within the 25-to-54 demographic that advertisers seek — most news viewers tend to be older — CBS is down 13 percent from last year, NBC down 7 percent and ABC up 2 percent, Nielsen said.

		NEW YORK — Now that Katie Couric is making the move from dawn to dusk, her legacy — and the future of CBS News — depends on the audience.
		CBS clearly hopes she’s a star who can give a bright new face to its last-place news division, attract younger viewers and inject life into a hidebound TV format.
		A new set, new graphics and a more contemporary style also will be fashioned around her in time for a September debut, the network said.

	Media Matters - How liberal is CBS really ?
		CBS Evening News segments on political topics broadcast between November 3, 2004, and February 17, 2005, featured 65 clips of Democratic officials or commentators representing progressive organizations and 83 clips of Republican officials or commentators representing conservative organizations.
		In November, CBS officials refused to air an advertisement for the United Church of Christ that promoted inclusion of gays, racial minorities and people with disabilities because they considered it "unacceptable for broadcast," noting in particular the Bush administration's endorsement of the Federal Marriage Amendment as part of their justification for not airing the ad.
		But CBS News is probably the finest of the network news organizations, and it's a shame that with the right already offside, you folk should attack from the other angle, and without context.

		Rather, 73, worked his first broadcast as anchor of "CBS Evening News" on March 9, 1981, when he took over from broadcasting legend Walter Cronkite, and has been with the network since 1962.

		The timing couldn't be worse for NBC - or better for CBS - as they both head into the crucial "upfront" season in May, when advertisers commit millions to buy commercial time for the upcoming TV season.
		NBC is already in a weakened position heading into those negotiations, with a lackluster primetime lineup and constant speculation that it is in danger of losing its morning show star.
		While the evening news skews toward an older audience, CBS is banking Couric will play well to younger viewers, which advertisers consider a key demographic.

		Yet today, when CBS unveils its fall schedule to advertisers, it'll boast that interim anchor Bob Schieffer has turned the once-troubled broadcast around, increasing ratings while competitors at NBC and ABC have declined, and paving the way for the arrival of NBC Today star Katie Couric Sept. 5.
		Last week, for the first time since 2001, Evening News beat ABC's World News Tonight in total viewers, setting the stage for a horse race between the two newscasts while NBC Nightly News enjoys a comfortable margin in first place.
		McManus says Couric, who leaves Today at the end of this month, will start at CBS in July and spend the summer banking stories for Evening News and 60 Minutes and working with producers on the look and tone of the new broadcast.
