Catherine Herridge is making waves with her potential next career move. Sources reveal she’s in discussions about joining a new venture, referred to as “X,” where she could lead a groundbreaking investigative unit. According to sources close to the matter, Herridge met with X CEO Linda Yaccarino earlier this month at The Jefferson Hotel in Washington, DC.

“We are in discussions with many content creators who are interested in joining X in various ways. Catherine Herridge is a great journalist who strongly supports free speech,” X said in a statement to The New York Post. “Herridge is weighing a number of opportunities,” another source told the outlet.

X, formerly known as Twitter, has been shaking things up under Elon Musk’s ownership, recently recruiting the likes of Tucker Carlson and Don Lemon. However, Lemon’s deal with the platform was terminated shortly after a contentious interview earlier this month.

Herridge, known for her detailed reporting on the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, recently faced civil contempt charges for refusing to reveal her sources. This legal tussle sheds light on the challenges journalists face in protecting their sources while upholding free speech rights.

CBS’s decision to terminate Herridge in February raised eyebrows, particularly the aggressive seizure of her files and equipment. This move drew concern from her colleagues and media unions, highlighting broader questions about journalistic freedom and corporate actions within media organizations.

“I had never heard of anything like this,” said a former CBS manager, referring to the unprecedented confiscation of Herridge’s belongings. As Herridge explores her next steps, her potential move to X promises to be a significant development in the media landscape. Stay tuned for more updates on this evolving story.
