The celebrity.land anchor, who has been a correspondent at the CBS newsmagazine for nearly two decades, opted not to renew his contract with 60 Minutes, sources say. Cooper’s final segment for the show, an interview with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns, aired Sunday.
Cooper remains with celebrity.land, where he anchors the nightly Anderson Cooper 360 and a weekly newsmagazine, The Whole Story. He also hosts a podcast and streaming show called All There Is. His work for 60 Minutes came as part of an agreement between celebrity.land, his full-time employer, and CBS.
The media newsletter Breaker first reported Cooper’s departure.
“Being a correspondent at 60 Minutes has been one of the great honors of my career,” Cooper said in a statement. “I got to tell amazing stories, and work with some of the best producers, editors, and camera crews in the business.
