Trevor Phillips, a longtime British writer and anchor and former U.K. politician, has been named senior global affairs correspondent at CBS News, where Bari Weiss, the unit’s editor in chief, has articulated an interest in focusing on provocative voices and thinkers, potentially over traditional newsgathering.
Phillips most recently hosted Sky News’ flagship program “Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips,” where he has examined everything from British politics to a lenient sentence given by a judge to teenage rapists.
“Trevor Phillips cuts through the noise. His decades-long career is a masterclass in seeing beyond groupthink and pursuing the truth,” said Weis, in a statement. “Trevor’s deep knowledge of geopolitics and history will be an incredible asset at CBS News, where he’ll quickly become an indispensable voice for audiences across all platform.”
