Quoting Les Moonves in a Q&A with Newsweek:
| What’s the place of news in this wide-open environment? I don’t think the network is a network without an evening newscast. It’s our job to reinvigorate the franchise. The average age of the news viewer is a little bit old, and we want to make it a bit younger and make the news much more accessible. Do you feel that the flagship of the news division will always be that early-evening half hour? I don’t know. Some may call “60 Minutes” our flagship. I don’t want to rank them. |
