CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss has selected Norah O’Donnell, the 60 Minutes contributing correspondent, to host CBS Mornings for three days next week.
Sources told The New York Post that Weiss and other executives asked O’Donnell, who is also a CBS News senior correspondent, to lead CBS Mornings next Monday through Wednesday while she is in New York for her book tour. O’Donnell will be delving into We the Women: The Hidden Heroes Who Shaped America during those broadcasts and on CBS Sunday Morning, according to a CBS press release.
It won’t be an unfamiliar position for O’Donnell, since she previously co-anchored the network’s morning show from 2012 to 2019, when it was called CBS This Morning. Then, she was paired with Gayle King and Charlie Rose. While Rose is no longer with CBS after sexual harassment allegations arose, King still is. She is joined by Nate Burleson.
