CBS Mornings Finds Gayle King Replacement?


Two months ago Gayle King was blindsided by reports that head honchos at CBS Mornings were not planning to renew her contract after it expires in 2026 [click here if you missed that].

Now rumors are swirling the CBS have found and are already pursuing Gayle's replacement...

From Radar Online
Beloved Today alum Hoda Kotb is being courted by bigwigs at CBS to replace dimming daytime star Gayle King amid a major shake-up that's already seen veteran anchor John Dickerson depart the Tiffany Network, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
"Let's be clear – he didn't quit. He was pushed. That shows that NOBODY is safe," an insider explained.
"People with big salaries and small ratings are going to be mercilessly cut – and Gayle fits the bill in both categories."
Sources exclusively told RadarOnline.com how Bari Weiss, the new editor-in-chief of CBS News, is quietly pursuing Hoda, 61, to take over CBS Mornings as 70-year-old King's contract ticks toward its 2026 expiration.
"CBS is done accepting third place," a high-level network source claimed. "Bari wants a huge name who brings warmth, credibility – and viewers. And Hoda checks every box."

    It's not going to be Hoda. They're going to build a new team around Tony. CBS News will be the new Fox News in no time.
