Scheduled it to air at the same time as an NFL playoff game to minimize viewership.

Yeah, I’m not so sure this holds as much water in the streaming days of availability, but it may have an impact.

Do a lot of people stream CBS news? Specifically after it airs. I would have to think most people that watch it either watch it on cable still, watch on antenna, or watch live streaming of it. Certainly the NFL game people watch live.

Specifically, 60 minutes. People don’t record it as much as they know have a product similar to YouTubeTV or Hulu Live or their cable provider that has it already available at the touch of a few buttons.
