Longevity guru Dr. Peter Attia is stepping aside as a contributor to
#CBSNews, after correspondence between Jeffrey Epstein and the researcher and health media personality came to light in the release of the Epstein Files from the Department of Justice.
CBS News staff were informed of the decision Monday in a note from the network's booking department, THR has learned. Attia told CBS that he would be resigning effective immediately.
Attia was one of a number of high-profile contributors that CBS
News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss brought on as part of her planned overhaul of the network news division, seeking to bring more voices into CBS' linear and digital coverage.
