Key Highlights
- Attia, a longevity expert, was named as a CBS News contributor on Jan.
- 27 when editor-in-chief Bari Weiss announced the network’s newest additions.
- But Attia was on the job for less than a week when his name appeared more than 1,700 times when the Justice Department released the latest batch of Jeffrey Epstein files on Friday.
- Attia and Epstein exchanged several emails, including one that featured the anti-aging guru joking that female genitals were "low card." In another email, Attia told Epstein that "the biggest problem with becoming friends" was that his life was "so outrageous" but he couldn’t "tell a soul" about it.
- Attia also sent an email with the subject line, "Got a fresh shipment." CBS News has been silent on the situation, but Fox News Digital has learned it decided to pull a planned repeat of "60 Minutes" featuring Attia that was scheduled to air on Sunday against the Super Bowl.
