Encyclopedia : C : CB : CBS : CBS Morning News

CBS Morning News is the half-hour daily television broadcast from CBS News that airs following Up to the Minute. It airs from 4:30 to 5 a.m. in many markets (it is updated for the different time zones across the United States) and features late-breaking news stories, weather forecasts, and sports scores. Its current anchor is Susan McGinnis. The program first aired on October 4, 1982 as the CBS Early Morning News, which was changed to CBS Morning News in January 1987.

The current CBS Morning News is unrelated to the breakfast program of the same name, which ran from September 2, 1963, until January 1979, when it was renamed "(day of week) Morning" (later just "Morning"). It is currently known today as The Early Show.
