Several CBS News reporters were caught up in layoffs at Paramount Global that claimed 800 jobs, including one who is embroiled in a high-stakes First Amendment fight — and another who has reportedly weathered HR probes over his workplace behavior, The Post has learned.
Catherine Herridge — an award-winning senior correspondent whose First Amendment case is being closely watched by journalists nationwide — was among the hundreds of employees at CBS parent Paramount who got pink slips on Tuesday, sources told The Post.

SeeBS - I watched a lot of BS on Sunday
Hollywood has somehow convinced people that court jester is the most important job in the kingdom.
I wonder if Fox would take Herridge back? No idea what the situation was when she left?
They fired her for reporting on Biden’s classified documents..she is one of the few that actually tell the TRUTH but thats a no no in the commie press
Every single company in the news seems to firing people.
How is this possible in the greatest economy ever?
Herridge should join Tucker Carlson.
I know her contract at Fox was up, and the tidbits suggest maybe she wasn’t happy with the direction Fox was going. Given who is running Fox right now, they may not open that door.
“They fired her for reporting on Biden’s classified documents..she is one of the few that actually tell the TRUTH but thats a no no in the commie press”
Well, unless she went rogue on live air some Editors went down with her as well.
I have always thought what was new today will be old in the future and what is old today will be new in the future.
For example, the Service Bureau in the 1970s and 80s, is the new Cloud Environment, in the IT World, yes, the technology is radically different but the concept is very similar.
Cable and Satellite companies have fallen out of favor because of bundling where customers have to pay for a lot of channels they don’t need or want, but they come as part of the package.
Streaming service have been the rage recently due to the unbundling that streaming services offer, you get only what that streaming service has to offer.
The problem is, no one streaming service offers everything most customers want, requiring someone to subscribe to multiple streaming services all with a separate cost to get all the things the customer really wants. Switching back and forth between the various streaming services in a lot of cases is still cumbersome.
Not to mention if you have a family with children with kids playing video games and the adults streaming content from multiple services all going on at the same time, you need a fairly robust internet connection.
These streaming services are currently offering a relatively low price to get people to sign up, those low prices and lack of customers signing up are causing most of the streaming services to lose tons of money.
The solution that I’ve seen being talked about is actually bundling multiple streaming services together for one competitive price at which points beings streaming services back to what turned people off about cable/satellite services.
Catherine Herridge? Hmm
The miracle of Bidenomics keeps getting better.
Well, obviously its not the greatest economy ever, but parts of it are better or worse off. The news media and entertainment industries seem to be in very bad shape.
Kid’s looking for a career path best do their research on what AI will be eliminating / reducing.
This is a DEI hire purging her “enemies”. Corporate America is reaping what it has sown.
Or Newsmax
I think tech has fired many as well.
800 lefties in the bread line. I don’t see a problem here.
Herridge is honest. Can’t have that.
With re ent plumbing problems not serious though
I think plumbers have most important job
