We’ve put streaming at the center of our strategy to bring CBS News content to new audiences anywhere, on any device,” said Rhodes. “Streaming Jeff’s CBS EVENING NEWS on CBSN after each night’s West Coast broadcast will be just the start of new digital extensions for this important franchise.”

Since launching in November 2014, CBSN has been one of the fastest-growing and largest stand-alone streaming services. That growth has continued across CBSN and CBSNews.com in 2017, with more than 35% growth in CBSN streams year-over-year. With an average age of 38, nearly 80% of CBSN viewers are between the ages of 18 and 49 and continue to expand the audience for CBS News content.

Before being named CBS EVENING NEWS anchor, Glor was a CBS News correspondent and lead anchor on CBSN during its critical launch period.
