She'll flame out. CBS News has been in the crapper for decades now (save for 60 Minutes). They've brought so many in to turn it around and they've failed. I guess this Hail Mary to reshape into a FOX News or government propganda is what the owners want to do at the moment. MAGAs are so locked in on RW outlets, hard to imagine they'll start tuning in to CBS for morning and nightly news. Look for CBS News streaming platforms and owned and operated affiliates to start pushing dreck. I'm sure there will be cross-polination on live events and sports too. Somhow worm into entertainment programming.
