Most recently, she covered intelligence, the Justice Department, and the Department of Homeland Security. She was also a correspondent for the news magazine Fox Files. She graduated from Harvard College and the Columbia School of Journalism and then began her career as an ABC News correspondent. Herridge's transition comes weeks after former Fox News anchor Shepard Smith stepped down earlier this month. Smith had also been at the network since its creation. source - https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/catherine-herridge-leaves-fox-news-for-cbs-news
