CBS News‘ president is stepping down after less than a year on the job.
Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews, who took over the news division in August 2023, will leave the role at the end of July 2024.
She will then take on an advisory role through the 2024 election cycle.
“After much consideration, I’ve decided this is the right time to step away from my current role at CBS News and begin to write my next chapter,” Ciprian-Matthews wrote in a memo to staff.
Ciprian-Matthews did not give a specific reason for her departure, but hinted at least one of the reasons could be impending cost-cuts and other changes as CBS parent Paramount Global readies to finalize a merger with Skydance Media.
“We all know our industry and company are going through a transformation and a number of short- and long-term decisions need to be made,” she wrote.
Maybe MSNBC will hire and place Ingrid in a suitable position.

This kooky lady ensured that 90% of CBS Evening News broadcasts started off with a WEATHER or CLIMATE CHANGE story.
Ciprian-Matthews has been with CBS News for 30 years, having previously been senior vice president of newsgathering. She has also worked in a variety of other leadership and editorial roles throughout many of the network’s broadcasts and operations.
