WCBS, the flagship New York station of CBS News and Stations, has announced a significant shift in its anchoring lineup. Weekend anchor Jessica Moore is moving to the weekday 5 p.m. newscast, joining Kristine Johnson. Moore will continue her role as a reporter for the station in addition to her new anchoring responsibilities.

“I’m excited to join CBS New York’s weekday team and take on this new chapter in my career,” Moore shared in a statement. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to continue telling meaningful stories and connecting with our viewers in this new role.”

Sarah Burke, news director at CBS New York, praised Moore's skills and fit within the team. “Jessica is a thorough and thoughtful journalist. While she thrives during breaking news, it is never at the expense of her humanity,” Burke stated. “She and Kristine make an excellent team on the anchor desk.”

The exact timing of Moore's last weekend broadcast remains unclear. Moore's career spans nine years at WCBS, preceded by positions at WLEX in Lexington, Kentucky; KVVU and KSNV in Las Vegas, Nevada; and WDTN in Dayton, Ohio.
