“CBS Saturday Morning” co-hosts Michelle Miller and Dana Jacobson are among the nearly 100 news division employees cut as part of a massive round of layoffs at parent company Paramount.
The program is getting a new format that will align it closer to the weekday show “CBS Mornings,” according to people familiar with the plans who were not authorized to comment publicly. Brian Applegate, the executive producer of the Saturday program, is out as well.
CBS has also canceled “CBS Mornings Plus,” an extension of its morning program that ran in several markets, including Los Angeles. “CBS Evening News Plus,” a streaming program anchored by John Dickerson is also being shuttered. Dickerson announced Monday he is leaving the network.
Several correspondents have already been laid off, including Debora Patta, who covered the Gaza war for the network; Janet Shamlian; and Nikki Battiste. A CBS News representative declined to comment.
The cuts are part of parent company Paramount’s reduction of 1,000 employees across all of its divisions. New owner Skydance Media is looking to reduce costs by $2 billion across the company, with a second round of cuts expected later this year.
Miller was a prolific correspondent for CBS News in addition to her Saturday co-host duties, contributing pieces to “CBS Sunday Morning” and “48 Hours.” She also was a frequent fill-in for Gayle King on the weekday morning program.
Miller, 52, is a Los Angeles native and the daughter of Dr. Ross Miller, a trauma surgeon who served on the Compton City Council. She worked at the Los Angeles Times in the early 1990s.
Miller covered a wide range of stories at CBS News, and paid special attention to issues of racism and social injustice. She is married to Marc Morial, the former mayor of New Orleans who is currently head of the National Urban League.
Jacobson, 52, has been with CBS News since 2015. She previously spent a decade at ESPN, where she appeared on “First Take” and “SportsCenter.”
Miller and Jacobson have served as co-hosts of “CBS Saturday Morning” since 2018, when it was called “CBS This Morning Saturday.”
