Ross Douthat, the conservative New York Times columnist and podcast host, has officially joined “60 Minutes” as a full-time correspondent — the first new hire for the show since major staff shakeups this year. CBS is rebuilding its flagship program with a center-left pivot, bringing on Douthat to balance its lineup alongside contributors like Sebastian Junger and Gianna Toboni. Veteran anchors Lesley Stahl and Bill Whitaker are returning for Season 58, while ratings rose 9% last year despite internal tensions. Douthat’s appointment signals a bold new direction for the iconic news program.
