CBS News rejected a report that Gayle King will exit CBS Mornings next year, saying there have been no talks about her contract, which runs through May 2026, and calling her a valued part of the network. Variety cited four sources expecting her departure, possibly into another news role. King has co-anchored since 2012 with Tony Dokoupil and Nate Burleson and signed a new deal last year. The denial lands amid a broader overhaul after Skydance’s Paramount acquisition, including Bari Weiss’s hire, looming changes at CBS Evening News, and layoffs affecting nearly 100 staffers.
