CBS News Editor-In-Chief Bari Weiss unveiled her strategy to the CBS newsroom on Tuesday, saying she will add 19 new contributors and focus on bringing a "streaming mentality" to the august network, which has consistently trailed in ratings to rivals ABC and NBC.
In a company-wide presentation, Weiss laid out a new vision to bring CBS News into the 21st-century by restructuring operations, starting news coverage on digital platforms and ending up on television. One major strategic initiative is to boost investment in commentary to appeal to more politically independent viewers.
