Zirinsky, 66, replaces outgoing CBS News President David Rhodes, who was brought in by the network’s then- chief executive, Leslie Moonves, in 2011. She is faced with preserving the journalistic legacy of the network while boosting the ratings for CBS News, which has lost ground to competitors in recent years. She also will have to heal the reputational damage to CBS caused by the sexual harassment allegations that led to the firing of anchor Charlie Rose and “60 Minutes” executive producer Jeff Fager.
