Paramount acquires Bari Weiss' The Free Press, names her top editor of CBS News [View all]

The newly formed media corporation Paramount Skydance has acquired The Free Press, an online news and commentary outlet co-founded by Bari Weiss, who will join CBS News as editor-in-chief.

Weiss launched The Free Press in 2021 with her wife, Nellie Bowles, and her sister, Suzy Weiss. They have presented the publication as a heterodox alternative to the legacy news media and a bulwark against “ideological narratives,” particularly on the political left.

She was truly awful at the NY Times, so bad she didn't lasts long. And now she is Editor-in-Chief of "the Tiffany Network."
