A report says Bari Weiss replaces a veteran 60 Minutes correspondent with a different colleague for an interview involving British politician Nigel Farage. The Independent reports that Senior Foreign Correspondent Holly Williams was originally slated to conduct an interview with Farage, but Weiss instead chose her colleague Trevor Phillips. The Post similarly reports that Weiss removed Williams from a planned Farage segment, citing a Breaker Media report.
Both accounts describe a change in staffing for the planned interview rather than changes to the interview subject. They characterize Williams as a veteran “60 Minutes” correspondent and frame Phillips as Weiss’s alternative pick. The reports do not include details about the reasons for the substitution or how it affects the timing, format, or planned release of the interview. The information presented is based on reporting from other outlets and does not provide additional confirmation from Weiss or the involved correspondents in the cited summaries.
