Team,
It has been a trying and difficult few days. I know that. I've spent a lot of time in conversation with many of you, and especially in consultation with Lesley, Bill and Jon.
We talked about what makes 60 Minutes exceptional, about the traditions and legacy of the past, about how you do the work that produces such momentous pieces. We also talked about change: About new audiences, new platforms, and new ways of storytelling that these new audiences need. We'll speak more about that in the weeks to come.
There are a few things I want to emphasize now.
60 Minutes is an extraordinary show. It's beloved by audiences and is part of the American fabric. That's because of your ambition for the most daring and revelatory stories. Your commitment to accuracy and care. Your standards of excellence in presentation, reporting and production.
