CBS News names veteran producer Tanya Simon to lead ‘60 Minutes'
While '60 Minutes' will soon have a new owner, the CBS newsmagazine's next executive producer is coming from inside the family. Tanya Simon, a 25-year veteran of the program, will take on the role vacated by Bill Owens in April. She has served as interim executive producer since his departure. She is the daughter of the late Bob Simon, one of the best known correspondents during the program's 57 year history. Changes at the top of '60 Minutes' have been rare. Simon will be only the fourth executive producer in the program's history and the first woman. Simon's appointment will be a relief to the program's staff, where morale has been rocked by parent company Paramount Global's battle with President Trump. The correspondents of the program signed a letter to company co-chairman George Cheeks urging him to give Simon the job. Simon will have the backing of her colleagues who are thankful they won't be dealing with an outsider who might not value the program's editorial rigor and independence. But she will be faced with the challenge of navigating the operation after one of the most difficult periods in its history. Paramount Global agreed to pay $16 million to settle Trump's lawsuit against '60 Minutes' over the editing of an interview with his 2024 opponent, then-Vice President Kamala Harris. Trump claimed the interviews was deceptively edited to aid Harris in the election. The case was labeled as frivolous by 1st Amendment experts and the settlement widely seen as a capitulation to Trump in order to clear a path for Paramount's $8-billion merger with David Ellison's Skydance Media. While '60 Minutes' did not issue an apology or acknowledge any wrongdoing, the program is likely to face intense scrutiny going forward. Critics will be looking for signs of the program pulling its punches in reporting on Trump. In order to clear the Paramount Global deal with the FCC, Skydance has agreed to name a news division ombudsman that will report to the company's president for at least the next two years. 'Tanya Simon understands what makes '60 Minutes' tick,' CBS News President Tom Cibrowski said in. a statement 'She is an innovative leader, an exceptional producer, and someone who knows how to inspire people,' ' Simon got her start at CBS News in 1996 as a researcher for its other newsmagazine '48 Hours.' She joined '60 Minutes' in 2000, working with correspondent Ed Bradley on a variety of reports including the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. She went on to produce for nearly all of the program's correspondents including her father. Her work has earned virtually every major broadcast honor, including multiple Emmy Awards, the Peabody and the DuPont-Columbia Award.

‘The Cosby Show' Alum Malcolm-Jamal Warner's Cause of Death Confirmed
The Cosby Show alum Malcolm-Jamal Warner's cause of death has officially been revealed. The Costa Rican Judicial Investigation Agency (OIJ) confirmed that Warner's autopsy was completed on Tuesday, July 22. Warner's cause of death was "asphyxia due to submersion." It was ruled accidental. On Monday, July 21, TMZ and People reported that Warner had died at age 54, citing accidental drowning as the cause of death. Following the first report, ABC News spoke to the Costa Rican National Police, who told the outlet that Warner had drowned off the coast of Costa Rica and his official cause of death was asphyxia. Police claimed that he died near Cocles, a beach in Limon, Costa Rica, after being caught by a high current in the water. He was discovered on Sunday, July 20. Most Shocking Celebrity Deaths of All Time Warner, born in Jersey City, New Jersey, in August 1970, landed his breakout role as Bill Cosby's onscreen son Theo Huxtable on the NBC sitcom The Cosby Show, which aired from 1984 to 1992. His performance earned him a nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series at the 1986 Emmy Awards. After The Cosby Show, Warner continued his television career on shows such as Malcolm & Eddie from 1996 to 2000, Reed Between the Lines in 2011 and 2015, Sons of Anarchy in 2014, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story in 2016 and The Resident from 2018 to 2023. Most recently, Warner had a four-episode-stint as Amir Casey on 9-1-1 in 2024. Aside from acting, Warner had a successful music and spoken poetry career. He won the Grammy for Best Traditional R&B Performance for his song 'Jesus Children' with Robert Glasper Experiment and Lalah Hathaway in 2015 followed by another Grammy nomination for Best Spoken Word Poetry Album Hiding in Plain View in 2022. Despite Cosby's sexual assault scandals, Warner said that the show is still 'so groundbreaking' and important. 'What made it so groundbreaking was its universality,' he explained to People in February 2023. 'NBC initially saw it as a show about an upper-middle class Black family. Mr Cosby diligently impressed upon them that the show was about an upper-middle-class family that happened to be Black.' Celebrity Deaths of 2025: Anne Burrell, Kim Woodburn and More Stars We've Lost This Year Warner went on to say that before The Cosby Show, 'black sitcom humor was predicated on being Black' — and all of that changed with the NBC sitcom. 'Though the Huxtables were clearly Black — reflected quite obviously by their dress, the Black art on the walls, the music — the family issues all were universal,' he told the outlet. 'And though Cliff [Cosby] was a doctor and Claire [Phylicia Rashad] was an attorney, the family dynamic was one that practically every family — no matter the ethnicity, socio-economic status or even family makeup — could find something to relate to.' Warner is survived by his wife and a daughter, whose names he has not chosen to publicly reveal.
