WASHINGTON/N.Y., Oct. 28, 2008—Slate, the daily online magazine, today announced it will showcase two- to four-minute highlights of Charlie Rose on Slate and Slate V, its video magazine.

This collaboration will feature handpicked highlights from Charlie Rose enabling Slate viewers to revisit Charlie's in-depth conversations with the world's most interesting people: from presidents, business leaders, and technological innovators to Nobel laureates, artists, and athletes; people such as Nelson Mandela, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Angelina Jolie, Toni Morrison, Jay-Z, John McCain, and Barack Obama.

"Charlie Rose presents honest, intelligent, and thoughtful interviews and commentary that are always relevant," said Jacob Weisberg, editor-in-chief of the Slate Group. "We think our audience will like seeing his interviews in this new format, and we're excited to extend his reach on the Web through our successful video platform, Slate V."

This is the first time Charlie Rose, which features conversations with the most compelling figures of our time, will be distributed to a magazine site.

"We are committed to creating smart, serious, stimulating conversations with the widest range of fascinating people seen online or on television. A partnership with Slate means we can offer more possibilities to an expanding audience," said Charlie Rose.
