His departure marks another major transition for the struggling evening newscast amid significant changes at the network.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd25 Quick Facts<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Maurice DuBois<\/b> announced his departure on December 4, 2025<\/b>, via Instagram, stating December 18<\/b> would be his final broadcast<\/li>\n
  • DuBois spent 20 years<\/b> as an anchor at WCBS-TV<\/b> in New York before joining CBS Evening News<\/b> in January 2025<\/b> as co-anchor<\/li>\n
  • Tony Dokoupil<\/b>, currently a CBS Mornings<\/b> co-anchor, has been named as DuBois’s permanent replacement, debuting January 5, 2026<\/b><\/li>\n
  • DuBois’s departure comes weeks after co-anchor John Dickerson<\/b> announced his own exit from the flagship broadcast<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n

    A Legacy Built Over Two Decades<\/h2>\n

    Maurice DuBois<\/b> joined WCBS-TV<\/b> in 2004<\/b> and became one of New York’s most recognizable news anchors. He co-anchored the station’s 5 p.m. and 11 p.m. newscasts for 20 years<\/b>, building a reputation as a trusted and distinguished storyteller. Prior to his WCBS<\/b> tenure, he worked at WNBC-TV<\/b> in New York starting in 1997<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    In January 2025<\/b>, DuBois was elevated to CBS Evening News<\/b> as co-anchor, partnering with John Dickerson<\/b>. Many viewed this as a prestigious role for the veteran journalist. However, his tenure at the national broadcast proved brief, lasting less than a year before his surprising announcement to depart.<\/p>\n

    Rapid Exit Amid Network Overhaul<\/h2>\n

    DuBois announced his departure by posting on Instagram, writing: “Moving on: December 18th is the day of my last broadcast at CBS News. It has been the Honor of a Lifetime. 21 years altogether, including my time at the CBS New York station.”<\/b> The announcement came as a surprise to many industry observers.<\/p>\n

    His exit occurs during a significant period of transition at CBS News<\/b>. The network has been undergoing major changes, including Bari Weiss’s<\/b> expected leadership role in shaping the newsroom. Former CBS News President Tom Cibrowski<\/b> praised DuBois in a statement acknowledging his contributions and distinguished career at the network. No specific reason has been publicly stated for his sudden departure.<\/p>\n

    Tony Dokoupil Emerges as Permanent Replacement<\/h2>\n

    Tony Dokoupil<\/b>, a 44-year-old Emmy Award-winning journalist<\/b>, has been named the new anchor of CBS Evening News<\/b>. Dokoupil, a Connecticut native, is transitioning from his role as co-anchor of CBS Mornings<\/b>, where he worked alongside other morning show hosts. CBS News<\/b> announced Dokoupil’s appointment on December 10, 2025<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    Dokoupil brings extensive experience to the evening broadcast. He has been a fixture at CBS News<\/b> for years and represents a fresh start for the program. His debut as sole anchor is scheduled for January 5, 2026<\/b>, giving the network time to transition leadership. Industry observers view Dokoupil’s appointment as the network’s effort to stabilize the evening news franchise during a period of significant corporate restructuring at CBS<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    What Does This Mean for CBS Evening News Future?<\/h2>\n

    Maurice DuBois’s<\/b> departure, coupled with John Dickerson’s<\/b> earlier exit, signals major changes for CBS Evening News<\/b>. The broadcast has struggled in the ratings compared to NBC Nightly News<\/b> and ABC World News<\/b>, according to industry reports. The network’s new leadership direction under Bari Weiss<\/b> appears focused on repositioning the program with fresh talent and emerging voices.<\/p>\n

    Tony Dokoupil’s<\/b> appointment as sole anchor represents a significant shift away from the co-anchor model that CBS Evening News<\/b> has employed since Norah O’Donnell<\/b> departed in 2024<\/b>. Whether this change will move the needle for viewership and credibility remains to be seen, but the network clearly believes a new anchor structure and personality can help revitalize the flagship broadcast.<\/p>\n
