Earlier on Wednesday it was revealed that King has signed a deal to stay with CBS Mornings. The broadcaster's editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, 41, shared the news to X, after months of speculation about King's network future.
The post included a quote from King herself. She triumphantly told The Wall Street Journal that 'rumors of my demise were inaccurate and greatly exaggerated.'

Earlier on Wednesday it was revealed that King has signed a deal to stay with CBS Mornings, after months of speculation about her future with the network
A few months before, in August, a well-placed CBS source told the Daily Mail that King's contract would 'most likely' not be renewed come May, aware that Weiss was about to take the reins.
Weiss's first order of business in October was laying off more than 1,000 staff - while extending a sort of olive branch to King, according to Variety.
One of the options was to keep King on the air at CBS Mornings for another year though at a lower salary, sources told the publication.

The Daily Mail has approached CBS for comment.
Another early move from Weiss - who was appointed by also-new Paramount CEO David Ellison with the expectation of being a disruptor - was elevating King's former cohost, Tony Dokoupil, to CBS Evening News.
