Baier addressed speculation that CBS News, now helmed editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, is eyeing him to front its flagship Evening News broadcast.

As Weiss navigates her first month at CBS News, she’s reportedly considered various household names to help her fulfill her mission of “building the most trusted news organization of the 21st Century” while also generating buzz for a network whose programming has faced a precipitous ratings decline and drawn political scrutiny.

Saying he was ‘flattered’ by all of the media attention the speculation has received, Bret Baier added that ‘we’ll see what happens at the end’ of his Fox News contract.

Weiss met with Jennings at the Tiffany Network's New York headquarters last week, according to the news site Semafor.

Bari Weiss is poised to revamp one of the nation’s most venerable down-the-middle news outlets, CBS News. The question is, will she be able to make money for corporate parent Paramount Skydance after doing so?

John Dickerson is leaving CBS News at the end of the year as Bari Weiss takes over as the new editor-in-chief. Dickerson has been with the network since 2009 and, in January of this year, began co-anchoring the CBS Evening News alongside Maurice DuBois.

Weiss was among the dignitaries who was invited to a conference put on at the New York Historical Society by private equity giant RedBird Capital.
