Gayle King Extends CBS Mornings Contract Amid Network Budget Cuts

King's renewal comes as CBS faces financial challenges and plans to expand its morning show.

Gayle King has signed a new contract to continue co-hosting 'CBS Mornings,' though the terms remain undisclosed.
King has been a key figure on the show since its launch in 2012, contributing to its recent ratings momentum.
The renewal occurs during a period of significant budget cuts at CBS and its parent company, Paramount Global.
CBS is expanding 'CBS Mornings' with a third hour, set to launch on September 30 in select markets and on CBS News 24/7.
Despite being in third place overall, 'CBS Mornings' has seen gains in the crucial 25-54 age demographic, partially credited to King's high-profile interviews.
