Transparent?
January 9, 2026 at QZVX
Jason Remington says:
Transparency was promised by Tony Dukoupil and he delivered. We see through him. He is a fraud. And yeah, he is no Walter Cronkite. Say goodnite, Tony.

Van Bones says:
Dukoupil will always have a place co-hosting the Drew Barrymore show or The View.

Bill Taylor says:
Bari Weiss is a partisan hack, with no prior TV news experience. One CBS News staffer said, ”We are a prideful newsroom, and she’s rubbing people the wrong way.”
Devil’s advocate: Doukopil looks and sounds like a traditional evening news anchor.
After initial missteps (and firing a senior producer), the “CBS Evening News” felt a bit more stimulating and tighter than the last version of the newscast with multiple anchors. But it doesn’t look all that different from a traditional evening newscast. Not a criticism, merely an observation.
Worth noting: CBS Saturday Morning with the two new hosts…unwatchable.
Qualifications for the job

Bari may not have TV news experience but, she was and is a blogger (theFP.com) – Fully qualified to handle the new position. I’m sure there were no backroom meetings or pressure to knuckle under to some outside source. This is CBS recognizing the power and expertise of Internet content creators and therefore handing over control of the network tv news to a blogger. I’m thinking the other content creators given consideration were Gavin McGinnis, Adam Carolla, Lilly Gaddis and maybe Stuttering John Melendez. The best of the best.
