Go West Young Man

CBS News Anchor Jeff Glor has taken his show on the road. 

Glor anchored CBS Evening News from Los Angeles  last night and will do tonight's show from San Francisco.

“Any time you are on the ground where news is happening and news is breaking, it’s important, it’s vital,” he said, speaking by phone from Jefferson City, Mo., where he was reporting an investigative story on his way to the West Coast. “Our goal is to try to do that as often as possible. You don’t get that granular feel for a story unless you have boots on the ground. We can cover things from afar but ultimately the goal is to be there.”

CBS is doing anything they can to prop up Glor's sagging ratings. It's odd for network Anchors to go on the road outside of sweeps, unless it is to cover breaking news. 

But at this point, CBS is getting desperate and they are hoping a trip to the Left Coast helps.
