Catching Up to FTVLive

Over a week ago, FTVLive told you that CBS News London Bureau Chief Andy Clarke held an emergency Zoom meeting with the staff to tell them that he is leaving the network.

We shared with you the internal memo that Clarke sent the staff and reported that a CBS News insider tells FTVLive that Clarke is, “the latest major talent to flee the network because of Neeraj (Neeraj Khemlani CBS News Co-President) who many say is stripping the news from CBS. Now there is a panic in London that the bureau will be stripped down significantly. In fact, the talk is Andy resigned because he refused to lead a mass firing.”

Well, the NY Post just got around to reporting the story yesterday, saying that Clarke “stepped down last week after multiple disagreements with CBS News co-president Neeraj Khemlani over budget cuts, according to sources close to the network.”

So, apparently, you can read the news first on FTVLive, or wait a week for the other media outlets to pick up on the story.

Just saying…
