Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Oregon elementary school shooter was a 16-year-old male, sources say
Bend dominated the new uploads. CBS News's most-watched release of the week was Anna Schecter's report on the Oregon elementary school shooting, drawing about 133,000 views in its first five hours.
Citing law enforcement sources, Schecter reported that at least three children and one adult had died. Other uploads followed the investigation, with John Jay College adjunct professor Felipe Rodriguez explaining what happens next. A subsequent report from Camilo Montoya-Galvez carried an update from the police chief and other officials, alongside analysis from school safety expert Kieran Carroll.
Beyond that coverage, The Daily Report brought in The Athletic's Mark Puleo to discuss an Oregon high school football coach's firing after calling an onside kick with a commanding first-half lead. Legal contributor Jessica Levinson also explained the Justice Department's lawsuit against California over voter records ahead of the midterms.
Across its fifteen new uploads and wider catalog, CBS News drew roughly 21 million views over seven days and added subscribers modestly. Its daily viewing is now about twice its usual pace, though that does not establish how much any individual report contributed. LiveNOW from FOX also had a substantial viewing week, while The Wall Street Journal's daily audience was running above its usual level. For CBS News, the new-release shelf centered on successive reports from Bend rather than a single standalone account.
