NEW YORK (AP) — The head of CBS News said Tuesday that a “60 Minutes” interview with adult film star Stormy Daniels is on its way but that more journalistic work needs to be done on the story.
News President David Rhodes’ statement at a conference in Israel Tuesday was the first time CBS publicly confirmed it had interviewed Daniels, who has alleged an extramarital affair with Donald Trump before he became president.
