Trump fangirl Bari Weiss wants Trump fangirl Sage Steele on CBS Mornings. Start your day the MAGAt way! [View all]
MAGA-curious CBS News chief Bari Weiss reportedly expressed significant interest in hiring Trump-supporting anchor Sage Steele for the networks morning show.
During conversations about the future of CBS Mornings held over the past few months, Weiss repeatedly mentioned Steeles name, Status reports, although it said it is unclear whether the former ESPN host ever had serious discussions with the network about coming on board.
Status was also told that there are no current ongoing discussions between the two camps. The Daily Beast has contacted CBS News for comment. A CBS News spokesperson declined to comment when contacted by Status, and Steele did not respond to a request for comment from Status.
The media news outlet also reported that Weiss expressed interest in hiring Leland Vittert, the former Fox News correspondent who now works as an anchor for NewsNation. Vittert wrote for Weiss Free Press in September and appeared on her podcast for a 90-minute conversation soon after.
