\n\tBari Weiss<\/a> has tapped Sky News presenter Trevor Phillips<\/a> as senior global affairs correspondent for CBS News<\/a>, Weiss and CBS News president Tom Cibrowski<\/a> announced Friday. Phillips\u2019 reporting will appear on all CBS News programs and platforms.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cTrevor Phillips cuts through the noise. His decades-long career is a masterclass in seeing beyond groupthink and pursuing the truth,\u201d said Weiss. \u201cTrevor\u2019s deep knowledge of geopolitics and history will be an incredible asset at CBS News, where he\u2019ll quickly become an indispensable voice for audiences across all platforms.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWidely known in the UK, Phillips is a three-time winner at the Royal Television Society Journalism Awards. Most recently, he hosted Sky News\u2019 flagship program Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips.<\/p>\n

\n\tPhillips will initially be based in London. <\/p>\n

\n\tCibrowski announced to employees in April that the network was planning a new leadership structure for its international coverage, with the introduction of a foreign editor role. Shayndi Rice was named to that role following the exit of Claire Day, a 23-year veteran of CBS News, who had served as London bureau chief for nearly a year before her departure was announced in April.<\/a><\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cCBS News is a global leader in making sense of events around the world for Americans,\u201d said Phillips. \u201cI\u2019m honored to be joining such a storied institution with a mandate to bring impartial reporting, analysis, and journalism to audiences that increasingly need to understand how global affairs impact their daily lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPhillips\u2019 career spans television, business, and politics. He was appointed Officer of the Order of the British Empire in 1999 for his services to broadcast journalism. He received a knighthood in 2022 for his work in equality and human rights. In addition to serving as a broadcaster, Phillips has written regularly for the UK\u2019s biggest newspapers,\u00a0The Times, The Daily Mail, The Sun\u00a0and\u00a0The Sunday Times.
