Scott Pelley will no longer anchor CBS Evening News, a post he’s held since replacing Katie Couric in 2011. 

According to The New York Post, Pelley’s office was being cleared out on Tuesday while he was away on assignment. Ouch. It is also noted that Pelley and CBS News president David Rhodes don’t really get along and there have been some increased tensions since Evening News ratings have dropped.

Inside sources told the Post that Pelley getting the axe was a long time coming, but cleaning his office out from under him was a pretty bad way to treat the “face of CBS.”

Pelley will stay on at CBS but is being moved to 60 Minutes. 

As TruthRevolt previously reported, Pelley considers himself a reporter in the tradition of Walter Conkrite; that classic "lefty tool."

Pelley certainly lived up to those standards, recently describing President Trump as “divorced from reality” and complaining about his “Twitter tantrums” or Trump’s “tendency to believe conspiracy theories.” Leftist journalists do as leftist journalists do.

Not that Pelley thinks he has an agenda. He told Variety, “I think it’s incumbent upon us ― all of us, we all believe this ― to help our audience sort out fact from fiction.”

A replacement has not been named for CBS Evening News.
