Some people gird for battle by putting on armor. Tony Dokoupil just bought a second pair of dress shoes.
“I’ve had the same pair of brown, beat-up, nasty dress shoes — my good shoes. I’ve been wearing them for several years now,” the “CBS Mornings” co-anchor confides in a recent interview.
Dokoupil, 41 years old, has reason to refresh his wardrobe. He and CBS News have renewed his contract, locking in the team behind the network’s morning news program– Gayle King and Nate Burleson also co-anchor the show, while Vladimir Duthiers is a daily contributor — for the next few years.
