CBS Evening News întrerupe emisia în direct din Taiwan după o urgență medicală

A CBS News camera operator suffered an on-air medical emergency, causing their coverage of President Trump’s trip to China to cut. The abrupt stop to proceedings happened during the first night of the broadcasters coverage of the trip by Trump to Beijing. Anchor Tony Dokoupil was leading the coverage when noises from behind the camera could be heard. Going off script, Dokoupil said: ‘Is he okay? We’re going to take a quick break we have a medical emergency here, we’re calling a doctor.’ Dokoupil is covering the latest on Trump’s trip to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in Taipei after being denied a Chinese visa. A source told Semafor that during a planning call on Wednesday plans were discussed about Dokoupil broadcasting from the Taiwanese capital.Another insider told Semafor that CBS had two correspondents who would be traveling with Trump to China. They said that Dokoupil being in Taipei highlighted how important the island is to the summit. Dokoupil said him being in Taiwan was the first time that CBS had ever reported from the island, just 100 miles off the coast of China Trump is seen here arriving into Beijing on Wednesday where he is to meet with President Xi JinpingStarting his coverage, Dokoupil said him being in Taiwan was the first time that CBS had ever reported from the island, just 100 miles off the coast of China.He also highlighted how White House Correspondent Weijia Jiang and Anna Coren, the broadcasters Hong Kong correspondent, were both in Beijing. In contrast, NBC News’ Tom Llamas will be anchoring their coverage from Beijing, with ABC’s David Muir also to be posted up in the Chinese capital. The setback for the broadcaster comes after the Evening News shot hit a new low one month after suffering its worst viewing figures in a century.Last month, Dokoupil’s evening show recorded the lowest engagement statistics since he took over the broadcast, averaging just 3.7 million views per night, according to Nielsen data obtained by Status. In the coveted 25-54 age demographic, which Weiss has been keen to attract, the show averaged only 467,000 people tuning in. Dokopil’s broadcast has now posted 12 weeks in a row below 600,000 viewers in this demographic, showing that millennials and Generation X alike are turning away.  Through 2026 as a whole, CBS Evening News has been reeling in an average 4.3 million viewers per night, down seven percent from last year and marking the lowest ratings this century. Weiss elevated CBS Mornings host Dokoupil, 54, to the Evening News anchor chair position in early January, right around where the ratings start. One television executive told Status that CBS News is a ‘sinking ship.”It’s clear they have no idea what they are doing – and one has to wonder what will be left of CBS News once the merger goes through and the Ellisons are done having to placate [Donald] Trump,’ they added. By contrast to Dokoupil’s show, major competitors including ABC’s David Muir and NBC Nightly
