What about Bob?

With all eyes focused on Katie Couric (will she or won’t she jump to CBS?) and ABC’s revamped “World News Tonight,” the “CBS Evening News with Bob Schieffer” has quietly been mak ing some viewership inroads. Not only is the news cast up (in viewers) in eight of the last 11 weeks (and six of the last seven weeks), but its viewership jumped to 7.98 million last week – up 270,000 viewers from the week before. Season-to-date, Bob Schieffer’s newscast has increased total viewers by 190,000.

And Schieffer’s former CBS colleague, Fred Graham, who’s been with Court TV since 1991, will chair that net work’s editorial board begin ning Jan. 1. He’ll be based in D.C. and will continue re porting for Court TV News.
