Norah O'Donnell appears in the Epstein files exclusively as a journalist reporting on news stories, not as someone connected to Jeffrey Epstein. All 69 mentions are from DOJ/FBI news briefing documents that cited her CBS Evening News broadcasts.
O'Donnell's name appears entirely in automated government news briefing documents (marked 'NETWORK EVENING NEWS LINEUP') that tracked major broadcast news coverage between 2020-2021. These FBI and DOJ internal documents listed her as 'CBS: Evening News with Norah O'Donnell' when cataloging network news lineups covering stories about COVID-19, the 2020 election, Amy Coney Barrett's nomination, and other major events. None of the documents show any personal connection, correspondence, or relationship with Epstein—her presence is purely as a news anchor whose broadcasts were monitored by federal agencies.
