CBS News also runs a CBS Newsbrief daily during CBS daytime programming. CBS News ran a five-minute news bulletin, transmitted to all the affiliates at 11:55 AM from 1958 to 1980, directly after Love of Life, and after The Price Is Right from 1980 to 1988. Currently it airs at 3:58 PM and lasts one-minute after Guiding Light.

CBS Newspath is CBS News' satellite news gathering service. Newspath provides national hard news, sports highlights, regional spot news, features and live coverage of major breaking news events for affiliate stations to use in their local news broadcasts. Newspath has a team of reporters dedicated to reporting for affiliates and offers several different national or international stories fronted by reporters on a daily basis. Newspath also relies heavily on local affiliates sharing content. Stations will often contribute locally-obtained footage that may be of national interest.

Newspath is a part of the Network News Service, a collaborative effort between the affiliate news services of ABC, CBS and FOX. This means that, for example, the FOX affiliate could uplink footage to their affiliate network, which would then be picked up by NNS, and be available to any ABC, CBS or FOX affiliate outside of the market that the footage originated in.
