CBS News has filled the vacant executive producer role for its ratings challenged morning show “CBS This Morning.”

• Diana Miller has been named EP of the show effective immediately, according to an announcement issued by CBS.
• Miller has been filling in as executive producer on an interim basis since Ryan Kadro left in January 2019.
• Miller was previously the show’s senior broadcast producer since 2016.
• She has been with the show since 2014.
• The announcement was made by Susan Zirinsky, president of CBS News.
• Meanwhile, “CBS This Morning” axed co-anchor Bianna Golodryga earlier this week.
• There are also reports that Gayle King is close to signing a new deal to remain with CBS and its morning newscast, but co-anchor Norah O’Donnell and John Dickerson’s futures are less certain.
• Insiders report that O’Donnell may take over as anchor of “CBS Evening News,” ousting Jeff Glor, while Dickerson may be moved to “60 Minutes.”
• Reports also indicate that the network then wants to “rebuild” “CBS This Morning” around King.
