Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the CBS Evening News.

My name is Tim Dillon.

I want to first start by thanking Barry Weiss for giving me the opportunity to sit here with you at the iconic CBS News desk and deliver the news.

CBS is a great American institution.

I also want to speak directly to people who feel that there may be some

changes coming at CBS or that the network isn't going to be recognizable. Nothing could be further from the

truth. Here at CBS, we have a journalistic commitment to integrity, giving you both sides or all sides

of every issue that matters to you. Barry is committed to delivering fearless, unbiased journalism.

And she is incredibly aware of what a shill you people think she is.

But she is not.

She is not a shill and nor am I.

I want to thank the Ellison family.

I want to thank Paramount. I want to thank the Ellison family. I want to thank Paramount.

I want to thank everybody who invested severely in me and Barry and the whole team at the free press.

The investments made were intense.

They were severe.

And I want to thank everyone who took hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars,

to make sure that you are getting fearless, unbiased news coverage from a team that's only agenda is the truth,

or only agenda is the truth.

That is the biggest thing that we are trying to do here.

We are not trying to come on here and spin and say, hey, hey, you anti-Semite pigs, eat your slop.

We're not trying to say that.
