Anderson Cooper plans to leave '60 Minutes' in latest CBS staff
SUMMARY
Anderson Cooper will leave "60 Minutes" after nearly two decades, not renewing his contract for the fall season. He plans to spend more time with his young children. Cooper called his time with the program "one of the great honors of my career," praising the team's work.
His exit comes amid turmoil at CBS News under editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, who has faced backlash for delaying editorial decisions. Recent internal tensions and layoffs have also occurred. The newsroom is bracing for further cuts, affecting about 15% of its workforce, while editorial direction and morale remain under scrutiny.
