Yes and its to cover more international news stories according to the article.

CBS News and BBC News intend to open a joint news bureau in Johannesburg, South Africa, one of the more significant developments in the emerging relationship between the two news organizations, which struck a newsgathering partnership in July of last year.

“The new arrangement in Johannesburg will bring together the CBS News team and BBC News personnel under one roof, enabling greater collaboration in our newsgathering throughout the continent,” said Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews, executive vice president of news for CBS News, in a memo issued to staffers Thursday. “This new bureau deepens our relationship with BBC News, which has afforded us a number of opportunities to enhance our newsgathering footprint since last summer,” she added.

Under terms of the newsgathering deal, the two news outlets were to share video, editorial content and additional resources. The partnership was also meant to expand newsgathering capabilities across the globe.
