Visuals: On a white background is a close up of a 3D curve, cutting to reveal a circle, then another to reveal the famous CBS eye logo. Then it cuts to "CBS" in 3D shade. It slides, and the screen cuts to another shot where the word "NEWS" appears one by one to reveal "CBS NEWS" with the CBS eye on the left. The curve is still seen far to the right.

Variant: A morning variant of the logo exists where on an orange background are the left and top portions of the CBS Sunday Morning sun logo (modified version, which used for CBS Mornings and CBS Saturday Morning) before the logo animates as normal. This is seen on CBS Mornings.

Technique: CGI by Gretel.

Audio: A violin theme, followed by a dramatic arrangement of the CBS five-note jingle with the stopwatch ticking sound from 60 Minutes. Composed by Antfood. The final three notes can be heard on Antfood's 2022 mnemonic reel here.

Availability: It debuted on 60 Minutes and started to appear on its current news programs from 2020 onwards.
