The Early Show and CBS News
In 1999, CBS News launched “Operation Glass Slipper,” the widely publicized search for Bryant Gumbel’s co-host on The Early Show. On November 1, 1999, Clayson was chosen, and joined Gumbel for the show’s first broadcast. From 1999 to 2002 she anchored The Early Show through the new millennium, the inauguration of President George W. Bush, and the attacks on September 11, 2001.
In 2002, Jane Clayson became a correspondent for CBS News. She regularly reported for “Eye on America” segments and contributed to both 48 Hours and The CBS Evening News.

“The news we hear, for the most part, is not news to our genius. It is the stalest repetition.”
