Tabloid Report: CBS' Steve Kroft Caught In Affair

The face of “60 Minutes” – the oldest and most-watched newsmagazine in America – has been carrying on an adulterous affair with a married woman behind the back of his own wife, multiple sources have told The National Enquirer.

Correspondent Steve Kroft has had a series of steamy sex sessions over the past three years with a woman The Enquirer has identified as New York–based Lisan Goines, a NYC attorney.

The Enquirer's investigation reveals that Kroft spent the evening of Dec. 17 with Lisan at Manhattan’s five-star Essex House.

The Enquirer this week is publishing details of the pair’s romance – revelations, it says,  that will shatter Kroft’s image as the clean-cut nice guy of Sunday night television.

And the sizzling details of the affair with text messages and photos may place his future at the show under serious question, according to the Enquirer.

Meanwhile, the NY Post reports the pair had a three-year affair, which ended last month.  Page Six quotes Kroft sexting Goines, “Miss you and all that goes with it. Especially my favorite tastes and colors . . . pink and brown.”

Another time, the 69-year-old newsman allegedly lamented to the 41-year-old Goines, “Working late. Just ordered out. Would rather be eating your pudding.”

A spokesperson for CBS News had no immediate response to the allegations.

Kroft, a five-time Peabody Award winner, has been with “60 Minutes” for 26 years and with the network for 31 years.
