Embattled CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss told staff during a much-anticipated all-hands meeting on Tuesday that they should leave if they don’t think she’s the “right leader” for the network, letting them know it’s a “free country.”
She was – perhaps surprisingly – joined in that clarion call by CBS Mornings co-anchor Gayle King, who has been the subject of multiple stories that she may soon be on the chopping block due to her age and massive salary.
