CBS News is reportedly considering replacing current "CBS Evening News" anchor Jeff Glor with "CBS This Morning" host Norah O'Donnell amid disappointing ratings.

Several unidentified sources told Variety that the network is also considering moving its evening newscast, which has been based out of its New York headquarters since it launched as "CBS Television News" in 1948, to Washington, D.C.

O'Donnell, 45, and her family currently live in the D.C. area.

The Hill has reached out to CBS News for comment.

"CBS Evening News" consistently finishes a decided third in the ratings race against its broadcast competitors.

Glor took over for Scott Pelley in December 2017 in an effort to challenge ABC's David Muir and NBC's Lester Holt.

CBS has fallen further behind NBC and ABC since that time, however.

In the latest sweeps period in November, ABC finished first in total viewers with 8.7 million viewers, ahead of NBC's 8.5 million, according to Nielsen Media Research. CBS trailed with 6.3 million.

In the key 25-54 demographic, NBC finished first with 1.9 million viewers, followed by ABC with 1.8 million and CBS with 1.3 million.

O'Donnell joined CBS News in 2011 as a chief White House correspondent after spending the prior 10 years with NBC News and MSNBC.
