*** QUOTE *****

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/tv/articles/just-anderson-cooper-leaving-60-215423586.html

Anderson Cooper is poised to exit CBS News’ “60 Minutes” after nearly 20 years of contributing to the program, according to a person familiar with his thinking, the latest blow to the revered Sunday-night newsmagazine after it has been undermined repeatedly by management at Paramount Skydance and its predecessor company.

CBS News was unable to make executives available for immediate comment.

360 is the only CNN program I watch with any regularity and I’ve enjoyed his interviews with Stephen Colbert. He doesn’t do anything with a lot of fanfare but quietly leaving 60 Minutes says a lot.
