Scott Pelley, the veteran journalist whose firing made headlines back in June, is looking at life beyond CBS’s 60 Minutes. In a new development, Pelley has reportedly registered with CAA for representation. The major talent agency will rep Pelley in all areas going forward. Former 60 Minutes reporter Lesley Stahl is also a client of CAA.
Scott Pelley has signed with CAA after 60 Minutes firing
Scott Pelley, who was fired from 60 Minutes in June 2026, has now been looking forward to life beyond CBS. The veteran host worked for the network for a whopping 37 years. However, he was let go after having a very fiery clash with 60 Minutes’ new executive producer, Nick Bilton. During the meeting, Pelley reportedly took aim at Bari Weiss, CBS News’ new editor-in-chief.
Pelley said Weiss’ early moves at the network were akin to “murdering 60 Minutes. She does not love this place; she was brought in to kill it and is doing exactly that. He also took aim at Nick Bilton’s credibility, calling his previous work “slender qualifications.”
Bilton later said that Pelley “hijacked my first meeting with staff to disparage me, my qualifications, and my intentions with remarkable incivility and contempt. I welcome a diversity of viewpoints and respectful debate among the team, but this was nothing of the sort.”
Before his firing, Pelley was the top correspondent at 60 Minutes. He interviewed everyone from President Joe Biden to Pope Francis. In his farewell note, Pelley said, “60 has been the number-one program in America for decades because our beloved audience finds integrity, quality, and humanity in our stories. Now, the new owner of our network is casting this legend aside, apparently to curry a moment of favor with the Trump administration.” (via THR).
Fans will soon see Pelley in a new role.
