Gayle King has emerged as CBS News’ greatest star, and the community is doing every little thing it will probably to maintain her. King had been in negotiations about persevering with as host of CBS This Morning with a brand new contract that may give her a significant wage enhance.
As of tonight, no formal new deal has been inked but. However, the host and CBS have come to “an understanding” that can see King proceed on the morning present and different information exhibits and occasions, an insider tells us.
“Nothing’s signed but the discussion is about finer points rather than whether or not Gayle will remain,” the supply added.
King is coming off the large success of her R. Kelly interview earlier this month.
Meanwhile, after a few years of scores features, CBS This Morning has struggled following the ouster of co-host Charlie Rose over sexual harassment allegations.
While King will stay the primary anchor of CBS This Morning, she might get new co-hosts, with present co-hosts Norah O’Donnell and John Dickerson reportedly thought of for different gigs inside CBS News, CBS Evening News, whose present anchor Jeff Glor had been beneath stress amid scores declines, and 60 Minutes, respectively.
