Saying he was ‘flattered’ by all of the media attention the speculation has received, Bret Baier added that ‘we’ll see what happens at the end’ of his Fox News contract.
The new boss of CBS News, anti-woke opinion journalist Bari Weiss, axed a series of its shows Wednesday and fired dozens of staff.
Bret Baier is insistent he is not leaving Fox News to join CBS Evening News. While chatting on the "Citizen McCain" podcast with host Meghan McCain, Baier was asked point blank if the rumors of him jumping ship at Fox News to join Bari Weiss' revamped CBS News were true.
The steep cuts to the news division included the entire race and culture unit, two streaming shows and the bureau in Johannesburg. Additionally, the network’s Saturday morning news show was gutted and its two hosts were let go.
CBS News staffers who object to Bari Weiss are either "too progressive" or "really old," according to a well-placed network insider speaking with Fox News Digital.
