Kim Harvey has been named executive producer of CBS Evening News, signaling changes ahead for the network’s evening news broadcast following an overhaul earlier this year.
Harvey will be the second woman to lead the broadcast.
Earlier this year, John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois became anchors of CBS Evening News, in a format that emphasized correspondent storytelling rather than the breaking news rundown of rivals.
Tom Cibrowski, president and executive editor of CBS News, said in a statement, “Kim brings a sharp news sense and terrific track record of producing from across the broadcast and cable networks. She is a well respected newsroom leader and her relationships with our on-air talent, producers and reporters run deep.”
More to come.
