“60 Minutes” has found its new executive producer after Bill Owens exited the news program ahead of Paramount’s settlement with Donald Trump. Tanya Simon, who was most recently the interim EP for the CBS show, will now serve as its executive producer.

CBS News has named “60 Minutes” veteran Tanya Simon as the broadcast's fourth executive producer. Simon, daughter of the late “60 Minutes” correspondent Bob Simon, has been with the show for 25 years and been running it on an interim basis since predecessor Bill Owens quit in April.

CBS News has named Tanya Simon the new executive producer of its flagship newsmagazine 60 Minutes. Simon succeeds Bill Owens, who resigned as EP earlier this year, citing corporate interference that meant “I would not be allowed to run the show as I have always run it,” Owens told staff. Simon was named interim EP following his exit.
