Norah O'Donnell leaving the CBS Evening News which could pivot to rotating anchors effective after the Election

I could see Gayle King or John Dickerson taking the chair too

Why would Gayle King work morning and evening shifts.

She'd give up the morning show

Why. The ratings seem steady I doubt they make any changes.

Plus she hasn’t done evening news since she left Hartford.
But it's no GMA though. Right now, GMA rules the roost (Heck, even the Today show can BARELY keep up with GMA). to find A REALLY GOOD competitor to GMA, you'd have to turn to Morning Joe on MSNBC (That's NBC's cash cow)

And SO WHAT if she hasn't done any evening news since she left Hartford. No one's going to even care (Much less know)

Why would she want to do it. Maybe she likes being a morning person.

I don't care how much someone "likes" being a morning person. Nobody likes dragging their ass out of bed at 3 AM to get to a studio, go through makeup and wardrobe and show prep, and then putting in two hours of trying to be their sharpest at sunrise.
 
Where are they basing CBSEN now? Are they back in NY?
Yes they are back in Studio 47 in the Broadcast Center:


CBS Evening News will be revamped after the election, with John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois anchoring from New York and leading an ensemble that includes Margaret Brennan regularly leading coverage from Washington, D.C. and Lonnie Quinn providing weather segments.
 
Yes, the CBS Evening News is back in New York City on Monday, from Studio 47 at the CBS Broadcast Center.


It's the first totally new set in Studio 47 in 30 years. CBS tweaked the studio a few times, most notably replacing the desk and installing a new standup position when Katie Couric took over the Evening News.

How big is that studio?
 
Very big. If you go to YouTube and watch a clip from the Dan Rather era, you can see the working newsroom behind Rather. Room for many employees to have their desks. I wasn't able to find a square footage immediately.

Looks like a smaller set now or are they only showing a portion of it.
