"We live in a time in which many people have lost trust in the media. Tony Dokoupil is the person to win it back," CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss said in a press release. "That’s because he believes in old school journalistic values: asking the hard questions, following the facts wherever they lead and holding power to account. Americans hungry for fairness will see that on display night after night."
"Tony is what everyone wants in an evening-news anchor – authentic, compassionate, unafraid," CBS News President Tom Cibrowski said. "He connects instantly, whether he’s talking with world leaders or with families navigating difficult news in their own backyards."
