So far Bari Weiss has done nothing to boost struggling CBS Evening News

 

A weekly increase for 20,000 viewers for Tony, most of them probably turning in to see what all the hoopla is about.

Ratings and headline:  Hollywood Reporter, 1/22/2026

Rick Porter reports:

Dokoupil’s first two weeks as anchor are also down from the same time frame last year, when the CBS Evening News averaged 5.13 million viewer and 729,000 adults 25-54.
