CBS Mornings Plus and CBS Evening News Plus, the streaming spinoffs of the network\u2019s morning and evening news programs, are being canceled, a source says. CBS Morning Plus is anchored by Tony Dokoupil and Adriana Diaz, while CBS Evening News Plus is led by John Dickerson, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/tv\/tv-news\/john-dickerson-out-cbs-news-1236410756\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">announced his exit<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/cbs-news-2\/\" id=\"auto-tag_cbs-news-2_1\" data-tag=\"cbs-news-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CBS News<\/a> earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tIn addition, the Saturday edition of CBS Mornings will be overhauled with a new format, with staffing merged with the team running the weekday edition of the program. And CBS News will close its Johannesburg, South Africa bureau, with the London bureau adding oversight of the region.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tMany TV news divisions have cut back their foreign bureaus in recent years, with overseas correspondents among the first to be cut loose in restructurings. Similarly, while streaming has been a source of investment for TV news divisions, the relatively modest viewership has made monetization challenging in comparison to their linear counterparts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tThe changes come just weeks after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/business\/business-news\/cbs-news-bari-weiss-paramount-free-press-1236392243\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bari Weiss joined Tom Cibrowski atop the network news division<\/a>, though the layoffs have been in the works going back to Skydance\u2019s takeover of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/paramount\/\" id=\"auto-tag_paramount_1\" data-tag=\"paramount\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paramount<\/a> back in August. According to a source, Weiss told staff on the daily editorial call that it would be a \u201cdifficult day\u201d at CBS News.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t\u201cIn some areas, we are addressing redundancies that have emerged across the organization.
