Here’s the latest on Norah O’Donnell based on recent reporting.
- Norah O’Donnell stepped down as anchor of CBS Evening News in early 2025, transitioning to a senior correspondent role while continuing to contribute across CBS News programs (including potential long-form interviews). This marked a shift from her five-year tenure as the CBS Evening News anchor and managing editor.[1][2][3]
- Since the transition, she has continued to appear in CBS News programming and conduct major interviews, with CBS signaling a broader, ongoing role across the network’s offerings, including 60 Minutes and primetime specials.[2][8]
- Public coverage through late 2025 into early 2026 has focused on her ongoing contributions rather than a return to the anchor chair, though media outlets have speculated about future executive or program-building opportunities within CBS News and Paramount’s ecosystem.[3][8]
