Health and longevity influencer Dr. Peter Attia has left CBS News after newly released files in the Jeffrey Epstein case revealed email correspondence between him and the late financier and convicted child sex offender, according to reports.
The fallout over his relationship with Epstein prompted Attia to leave his contributor role, which he was recently given by Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss just days before the Department of Justice released a new batch of materials in the Epstein files, The New York Times reported. More than 1,700 documents included Attia's name and conversations between the two men.
"The files showed Dr. Attia providing extensive medical testing and advice to Mr. Epstein, lamenting that he couldn’t tell anyone about Mr. Epstein’s 'outrageous' life and making crude comments about women," according to The Times. "The emails prompted condemnation from many other doctors."
Staff discovered Attia's decision from a note to the network's booking department that explained Attia would leave effective immediately, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
