Peter Attia Resigns from CBS News After Epstein-Related Messages Surface

Peter Attia, a longevity doctor and influencer, resigned from his newly appointed contributor role at CBS News and as Chief Science Officer at David Protein following the release of US Department of Justice files revealing his extensive email exchanges with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. While Attia apologized for the content of some messages and denied any involvement in Epstein's criminal activities, his communications included vulgar remarks about women. His resignation aimed to avoid distracting from CBS News' work amid the controversy.
