NEW YORK — Katie Couric, 60, is leaving the online company Oath, formerly Yahoo, where she has been conducting interviews and reporting news since 2014.

A representative for the former “Today” show host and “CBS Evening News” anchor said Friday she turned down an opportunity for a short-term contract extension at Oath.

Couric is working with National Geographic on a documentary to follow up her project on gender revolution. She’s producing a scripted series for Netflix, hosts a podcast where she interviews figures in news and pop culture, and produces “Scraps,” a cooking and travel series for the FYI network.
