According to various sources, Paramount Skydance is expected to buy Bari Weiss' "The Free Press" in a multimillion dollar deal, after which she is expected to be placed as the editor-in-chief of CBS.

This may come with some substantial issues for Weiss, who is broadly unpopular with most on the left for her strange "anti-woke" stylings, her constant transphobia, bizzare xenophobia, and self-proclaimed Zionism. If she's hired, will she be out by next July?

If Bari Weiss is never hired as editor-in-chief of CBS News, or she's placed in some other role, this resolves N/A.

Otherwise, if Bari Weiss leaving the role of editor-in-chief is announced before July 2026, this resolves YES - even if she announces she'll leave after July 1st, 2026.

If, on June 30th 2026, Bari Weiss is still in the role of Editor-in-Chief at CBS News and her imminent departure has not been announced, this resolves NO.

This market will not resolve based on CBS News changing its name. If CBS News ceases to exist before July 1st, this resolves YES.

If she's hired my guess is she'll be aware of what she's getting into. Lasting less than one year starting with board-level support is probably not that challenging.

@Balasar I'm not confident it's board-level, though. Apparently, she'll be reporting directly to Ellison himself. I'm not confident she'll be capable of bridging any sort of gap between her and the current CBS newsroom.

@Marnix hmm fair enough. Would love to be wrong.
