"Bari Weiss, the editor-in-chief of CBS News, is scheduled to moderate a network town hall event with Erika Kirk, the widow of the conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the Guardian has learned. The event will air on 13 December at 8pm and will focus on grief, faith, politics, and more, according to internal marketing materials. According to an online form soliciting potential attendees, the event will actually be recorded on 10 December at 12pm in New York City."
"The town hall is a notable bit of programming for Weiss, who took on her role in October with a mandate to bring more balance including a variety of political perspectives to the network. While Weiss was influential in organizing a 10 October interview of former secretaries of state Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice conducted by CBS News journalist Norah O'Donnell, she did not personally participate in the program."
