Hours ahead of their debut as co-anchors for the revamped CBS Evening News, John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois stopped by Monday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus to preview their outlook on what promises to be a different newscast that would cover fewer stories, but go more in depth on those they do highlight. The two promised to help viewers “understand” the news “in a clean and clear way” with “good, clean information” while “the world’s on fire.”
They added their newscast — which has spent decades in third-place — would be “illuminiat[ing]” as opposed to “agitating,” “bombarding,” “pelting,” and “poking at them” with “a firehose of news[.]” We’ll see if they hold themselves to doing this for all Americans and not turn into this.
