Katie Couric is available. Pelley was a battlefield promotion. He was fine, other than his ratings sucked. CBS was still the most-watched network last time I checked (NBC won the demo!) so his ratings should be higher. A lot of that could have to do with how many CBS affiliates have Judge Judy or Ellen. Who could make a ratings difference. Maybe Megyn Kelly. Just spitballing here, but what about Rachel Maddow? Sure they would write off the right but she might draw in the youth and others who don't currently watch the news.
