In a significant shakeup at CBS News, longtime anchor Jeff Glor has announced his departure. This comes as Paramount, CBS’s parent company, grapples with industry-wide challenges and internal restructuring, leading to widespread layoffs. Glor, a familiar face in American households for nearly two decades, has left a lasting impact through his work on CBS Evening News and CBS Saturday Morning.
On his final broadcast of CBS Saturday Morning, Glor delivered an emotional goodbye, reflecting on his career and passion for storytelling.
“I grew up as a kid who came to love the written word,” Glor shared with viewers. “Meeting the writers who shaped me, finding new voices, and sharing their stories with you has been a thrill.”
Glor expressed deep gratitude for his audience, colleagues, and the opportunity to work on meaningful stories. “Thank you for watching. It means everything,” he said. “I don’t know exactly what’s next, but I do know I love what I do. Interviewing, anchoring, reporting, and sharing stories that matter—that will never go away.”
His farewell struck a chord with viewers, many of whom took to social media to express their admiration and sadness over his departure.
