Peter Attia Apologizes as Reports Say CBS Plans to End Contributor Role After Epstein Disclosures

The Justice Department’s document release triggered fresh scrutiny of the longevity doctor’s emails with Jeffrey Epstein and intensified questions about his judgment.

Overview

  • The DOJ released more than 3 million pages, over 2,000 videos and 180,000 images related to Jeffrey Epstein under a transparency law.
  • Attia appears in the files more than 1,700 times, with emails that include crude remarks and praise for Epstein’s “outrageous” lifestyle.
  • In a lengthy post, Attia apologized for “embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible” emails, denied any criminal conduct, and said he was never on Epstein’s plane or island.
  • The Wrap reported, and Reuters relayed, that Paramount-owned CBS News is expected to sever ties with Attia following the disclosures; the network has not commented.
  • Newly surfaced messages include references understood as Little Saint James and show a July 2017 meeting confirmation with Epstein as reporting notes Attia’s infant son was hospitalized, while separate reporting shows a partner company removed him from its website.
