Longevity doctor Peter Attia has stepped down as a contributor to CBS News following the release of correspondence between him and Jeffrey Epstein in the unsealed Epstein Files.
The decision was communicated to CBS News staff, and Attia's resignation was effective immediately. Attia's name appeared approximately 1,700 times in the released documents.
While the exchanges were reportedly from the mid-2010s and Attia stated he did not engage in or know about any criminal activity, the embarrassing nature of the emails led CBS to pull a rerun of a '60 Minutes' segment featuring him. Attia acknowledged the public release of the emails was his responsibility and expressed regret for putting himself in such a position.
