CBS News staffers are “pretty salty” with Gayle King over her rousing defense of the network’d embattled editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, suggesting that the CBS Mornings star is just trying to “stay relevant” and save her job, according to multiple sources who spoke to The Independent.
After King closed out Tuesday’s all-hands network meeting by raging against the “leakers” in the CBS newsroom while doubling down on Weiss’ call for unhappy staff members to head for the exits, one network staffer said that the morning anchor’s remarks were an “utter disappointment.”
