I generally watch CBS Morning News and Evening News each day, but I admit I have been flipping to other channels trying to find something other than George Floyd and Black Lives Matter coverage. Yes, these are important news stories and I think CBS blanket-covered it, BUT there are other news stories that are important. I live in Florida, so I was interested in the tropical storm that hit our neighbors in Louisiana last weekend. What about those two missing children in Idaho? What about the upticks in COVID? And what's going on with Prince Andrew and the Jeffrey Epstein case? PLEASE! Stop fixating on only one thing and give us a broader scope of all news. Thank you.

Morning show
June 10, 2020

I just can not watch the morning show anymore. I watch the morning shows for news, not opinions. There is so much more going on in the world rather than one or two stories.

Bias
June 9, 2020

Trusted news programs should be under bias, but there is no dought who they intent to pitch. Focused on the death of George Floyd but it didn't matter that 6 black officers died protecting life and property. News should be the full story not slanted to promote reactions from people or to endorse a policatial party. Where has all the honest news people gone, we miss you Walter Cronkite.

Biased

This network so so biased against conservative views it is so hard to watch. This news network should be sanctioned for trying to influence american citizens.

She waited patiently, Miss Nora but she aint worth the hay. Since the virus, you have been subbing with affiliate anchors across the country. ANY one of them is superior to Norah O'Donnell with her exaggerated delivery, smiling when inappropriate and look down her nose style. You replaced Jeff Bore, I mean Gore with her. For sure you need to stick with a male anchor.

Paula Reid, Caitlin Collins and your Chinese diversity project Weija Waing are all pathetic, disrespectful and should be terminated by your organization. None of these so called reporters are interested in the facts, only their opportunity to be on TV to support their liberal agendas with gotcha and disrespectful questions for the President. You are the Kings and Queens of FAKE NEWS. No way will I ever watch CBS again until you clean house and provide fair and honest reporting.

Racial disparity
April 22, 2020

I know I'm tired of African/Americans or people of color are making this a racist virus. Who's the racist here? What about all people, even the "clear" non color people are not immune.
It's sad CBS interviews an older, obese black woman with her mask on incorrectly to be their "victim".
Maybe the story is for all to wear mask correctly and address existing health issues: obesity, hypertension, etc and follow the guidelines!
I was recently at the grocery store with my mask and following distancing, I noticed that other African Americans were not, no mask no distancing!
Stop being a victim and follow the guidelines!

Gayle King and her co-hosts are an embarrassment to morning news. The lack of news and reporting along with the opinions of all three reporters strewn throughout the broadcast are ridiculous. I have watched cbs morning news religiously for years but will no longer be tuning in. CBS, get it together and replace these three buffoons!

CBS new you are not journalists, you are left wing democrats who don't give a rats behind about the American people. I will slam your station along with CNN and NBC every chance I get by the time we are all done with your bias political news station you will have no one watching or listening to you. You all need to be put on a boat with Pelosi, CNN, NBC and the rest of the left wing democrats and a one way ticket to china to be fed only wet market food and live over there since you don't seem to care about the American people or the immigrants who came to this country legally and became citizens. You care so much about the illegal immigrants and China go live with them. You should all be charged with Treason for the lies you are telling about President Trump. Your not journalists you a bunch of terrorists. I hope God punishes all of you for your lies and your judgement day comes soon. You are horrible people and I am one American that is going to see to it that I slam you every way I can through social media and friends and family. You all should be ashamed of yourselves but you're not because you only care about fattening your pockets and helping those who only want to take everything away from the American people.

CBSN Review
April 18, 2020

In this time of Coronavirus lockdowns, it is really important for US citizens to have access to updates relating to spread, vaccine progress, equipment distribution and state mandates. I do not subscribe to cable TV, therefore, do not have access to multiple cable or network news programs. I do have access to ABC, NBC, and CBS News streaming. I have preferred CBS streaming, especially the ability to watch daily white house briefings. However, it seems like CBSN has dropped showing the graphs and visuals while the speakers are explaining them. Viewers can't see what is being explained. Please get a split camera view, or at least focus on the graphs that are being discussed! Up until a few days ago, this review would have been much better!

Reporter deficiencies
April 14, 2020

Although I find some of the CBS reporters tactics deplorable, what prompted me to write now was Paula Reid's unbelievable behavior at the White House press briefing yesterday. It's hard to fathom that anyone could act so disrespectful and continue to talk after having been overridden by the President. It seems to me that she acted like a spoiled brat. Is there any professionalism to be had from her uncontrollable rant?
I'm not tuning into CBS news as often as I used to. I'm sick of the negativity and deliberate prodding of guests on CBS.

I am not a fan of president Trump but at the White House briefing yesterday, the exchange between Paula Reid and President Trump was so uncomfortable I was embarrassed sitting in my own living room. Absolutely could have been done in a more professional way. Paula Reid definitely has some anger management issues. From now on when I see her... the channel will be changed unless she does.

Gayle's interview with Andrea Bocelli this morning was amateurish as well as all of her interviews. It's beyond my understanding as to why she is even on the morning show. She has an over rated view of herself. Even when most people that are speaking from their homes, they do not feel the need to show every corner of their apartment. You can tell a lot about a person when they are boastful. Please fire her! Anthony and Tony are the reason we watch the show.

Norah is growing on me. Her sensitivity shows night in and out. She tries to be somewhat objective. Obviously she can't be totally objective since she is part of the overall media that hates Trump and REFUSES to give him credit for anything and BLAME him for everything. That said, she does sometimes offer the Republican position. The other two networks just spew one side of whatever story they are talking about. They are so biased it is pathetic. Unfortunately this leads to people no longer believing in the credibility of the news, the newspapers, news magazines etc. Please be more balanced.
The best thing about CBS news remains Steve Hartman's stories. Please keep them going,
Thank you.
