'''CBS News''' is a news organization that broadcasts several programs, including ''[[The CBS Evening News]]'' with [[Katie Couric]], ''[[60 Minutes]]'' and ''[[Face the Nation]]''.
CBS claimed [[George W. Bush]] went [[AWOL]] from his [[National Guard]] duty during the [[Vietnam War]], but the documents it relied on to make this accusation were later found to be forged.
In the 1950s Edward R. Murrow worked for CBS News and famously criticized Senator [[Joseph McCarthy]].

When Katie Couric became the sole head anchor of the CBS Evening News she became the first woman to solo-anchor on the weekday evening news of the three traditional U.S. broadcast networks ([[ABC]], [[CBS]] and [[NBC]]).
