"That didn't take long. CBS Star Gayle King warned colleagues about leaking to other media outlets during an internal CBS town hall on Tuesday. How do we know that? Because her comments were immediately leaked. New York Times media reporter Ben Mullin posted about King calling out would-be leakers. I'll be curious to see how long it takes for this to get out, King said, according to Mullin. Cause it'll be somebody in this room."
"That includes CNN's Brian Stelter, who shared Weiss's full remarks on X. We are not producing a product that enough people want, Weiss told staffers. She also lamented that the American public does not trust her outlet or other mainstream outlets. That claim is supported by polling, with Gallup finding trust in the mainstream press is at an all-time low. Variety's Brian Steinberg noted her prepared comments at the outset did not really constitute a leak because CBS sent them to several reporters."

The warning was immediately validated when New York Times reporter Ben Mullin posted King's remarks. Multiple media reporters, including CNN's Brian Stelter and Semafor's Maxwell Tani, shared Bari Weiss's prepared comments and live updates on X. Weiss told staff the network is not producing a product that enough people want and that the American public does not trust mainstream outlets. Gallup polling shows trust in the mainstream press is at an all-time low. Variety noted Weiss's prepared comments had been sent to several reporters.
