Peter Attia resigns from CBS News contributor role after Epstein files reports

Peter Attia has resigned from his role as a CBS News contributor following reports that newly released Epstein-related files referenced a past association, according to industry reporting.

The files reportedly include names of individuals who had varying levels of contact with Jeffrey Epstein. Being referenced in such documents does not by itself imply criminal wrongdoing, and no allegations of illegal conduct have been publicly confirmed in connection with Attia.

CBS News has not issued detailed public comment regarding the resignation. The development comes amid renewed scrutiny of figures named in recently released records.

The situation remains developing, and further clarification is expected as more information becomes available.
