Jeff Glor Addresses CBS Evening News Change



"CBS Evening News" anchor Jeff Glor closed Monday's broadcast by briefly addressing the major shakeup at CBS News without mentioning his replacement, Norah O'Donnell.

It was officially announced on Monday morning that O'Donnell, who currently co-hosts "CBS This Morning" with Gayle King and John Dickerson, was taking over as anchor and managing editor of "CBS Evening News" and that Dickerson was becoming a correspondent "for 60 Minutes." King is set to remain on "CBS This Morning" and will be co-hosting with CBS News' senior national correspondent Anthony Mason and correspondent Tony Dokoupil.


Glor, 43, became the anchor of "CBS Evening News" in December 2017 following Mason's short tenure after Scott Pelley's departure six months prior. He also did not refer to his predecessors by name in his 40-second remarks but promised to share "far more" about his future.

Glor's future? Unclear.
