CBS Evening News Fires Javier Guzman After Tony Dokoupil Flak
CBS Evening News fired top producer Javier Guzman as the newsroom stayed unsettled after criticism of new anchor Tony Dokoupil and leadership changes tied to Bari Weiss.Dokoupil, 45, moved from CBS Mornings to the flagship broadcast and faced blowback over a pre-recorded Miami segment in which he teared up discussing his childhood and his father’s drug dealing, even as ratings were up slightly.Megyn Kelly mocked the emotion on “
The Megyn Kelly Show,” and
Mark Halperin argued the piece “was not a segment that should have gone to air” because it was not live.
