The news is not good for CBS Evening News Anchor Jeff Glor. 

Glor took over the chair 6 months ago and his ratings have been trending in the wrong direction. 

The Wrap writes that over the 26 full weeks that Glor’s been on the air in the role, the nightly news program has slipped 5 percent in total viewers year-to-year and an even steeper 9 percent in the critical 25-54 year-old news demographic that advertisers covet.

Since Glor took over “Evening News” last December from Scott Pelley, who went to “60 Minutes” full time, CBS has lost in total viewers for 24 out of those 26 weeks.

Ouch!
