Bari Weiss Takes the Helm at CBS News
Bari Weiss, known as an anti-woke crusader, has been hired as the editor in chief of CBS News, with Paramount also acquiring her Substack publication, the Free Press.
Following the announcement, media reporters closely covered Weiss's first days in office, despite the lack of explosive information emerging.
the installation of a journalist known for her attack-dog style into one of the most gilded positions in broadcast media does warrant close scrutiny for what that choice says about the industry and its future.
Weiss launched the Free Press in 2021, after leaving the New York Times, and it has gained over 1.6 million subscribers and $15 million in annual subscription revenue.
