Gibson was named CFO and VP of finance and administration, Beth Diaz was named VP of audience development and analytics and Kristine Coratti was named VP of communications.

Becket Adams, and also hired Sarah Westwood and Ethan Barton as investigative reporters and Claire Daniel as a social media strategist. WTTG FOX 5 hired Marina Marraco as a reporter and Patrick Paolini was named VP and GM and Paul McGonagle was named VP and news director. WSJ’s Peggy Noonan officially joins CBS News as a contributor.
