“CBS Evening News” is getting a new companion show to go along with its new hosts. The network on Wednesday said it is launching “CBS Evening News Plus,” a half hour program that will stream online and in certain markets, beginning in January.
The new digital show will be hosted by John Dickerson, who will also be anchoring a revamped “CBS Evening News” alongside Maurice DuBois starting on Monday, January 27. Dickerson and DuBois are replacing Norah O’Donnell, who has served as the news show’s anchor since 2019.
“CBS Evening News Plus” will stream on CBS 24/7, the network’s free streaming service, at 7:00 p.m.
