Six months into the job, MAGA-fried Bari Weiss takes CBS News' ratings to a new low

 
Headline:  New York Post, 4/13/2026

Sources said Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison, who took control of CBS’s parent company last fall, had been hoping that Weiss and [network president Tom] Cibrowski — who had joined CBS News early last year under the network’s previous owner, Shari Redstone — would complement each other’s skills. 
Increasingly, it’s looking like a flopped bet. 
“They are an odd couple to me,” said a CBS insider. “There doesn’t seem to be a lot of synergies between them.” 
A source close to the network brushed off any suggestion that Weiss and Cibrowski are an “odd couple,” instead calling their visions “complementary.” The person added that Cibrowski is taking “some ingredients of ABC” and mixing them with Weiss’ “fresh perspective,” noting that it will “take time” to see progress.
