On Thursday, amid news of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal that could herald the end of the war in Gaza, Bari Weiss presented her new charges at CBS News with a pitch: a roundtable discussion about the news with former U.S. secretaries of State. The idea, I’m told, seemed too ambitious to some network veterans given the booking requirements—until Bari began texting the ex-secretaries during the meeting to try to set her plan into motion. By the afternoon, as The New York Times, Semafor, and others reported, Bari had tentative agreements in place. On Friday morning, CBS announced that former Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell would moderate a discussion with Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice that would air on the news network’s streaming channel that afternoon.
