Long live the King: Gayle King signed a new deal to stay on 'CBS Mornings' - Poynter
"Rumors of my demise were inaccurate and greatly exaggerated. CBS News is my longtime home, and I am committed to our mission. I'm excited about continuing at 'CBS Mornings.' As always, I'm open to new adventures here and ready to go. It took a minute, but we got there. And now that we are here, I am all in."
"Re-signing King is a bit of good news at CBS News, and provides some on-air stability following recent shakeups at the network. Bari Weiss, an opinion columnist with no network TV experience, took over as editor-in-chief of CBS News last October, unsettling many longtime journalists at the network."
Gayle King has signed a new deal to continue as co-host of CBS Mornings, ending months of speculation about her departure. King's contract was set to expire in May, and reports had suggested she might leave the network. She dismissed these rumors in a January staff meeting. King expressed commitment to CBS News and enthusiasm for continuing on the morning show. Her re-signing provides stability for CBS News following recent organizational changes, including the appointment of Bari Weiss as editor-in-chief and the departure of Anderson Cooper from the network.
