Norah is Nowhere to Be Seen in Ukraine
While ABC’s David Muir and NBC’s Lester Holt have both been dispatched to Europe to cover the Ukraine-Russia crisis, “CBS Evening News” Anchor Norah O’Donnellcontinues to deliver the news from DC.
She could be seen talking to a Ukraine citizen while sitting in the DC studios.
One CBS News insider thinks that this is an intentional decision by the CBS News brass.
With O'Donnell's contract is up soon the insider believes that CBS management is trying to diminish her presence.
CBS sent Tony Dokoupilto Ukraine in place of O’Donnell.
They also had Gayle King join O’Donnell in covering the State of the Union address.
The insider says this is all part of the network’s decision to downplay O’Donnell’s role at CBS News.
