60 Minutes has found its first new slate of correspondents and contributors.
The CBS newsmagazine has hired New York Times columnist Ross Douthat, The Perfect Storm author Sebastian Junger, and Vice News veteran Gianna Toboni to join its ranks, alongside Norah O’Donnell, who will have more of a presence on the show moving forward after serving as a contributor for years.
Douthat will be a correspondent, with Junger and Toboni serving as contributors. Trevor Phillips, who joined CBS News as senior global affairs correspondent, will also be a contributor.
They join existing correspondents Bill Whitaker, Lesley Stahl, and Jon Wertheim.
New 60 Minutes executive producer Nick Biulton announced the hires in a memo Tuesday.
More to come.
