There was a time when the words CBS News meant something elemental: rigor, independence, and a moral spine you could feel through the screen. Those days are gone.
CBS News Has Lost the Trust Murrow and Cronkite Built - Solzy at the Movies
CBS News once stood for truth without fear. Pulling a vetted 60 Minutes segment exposes how far it has fallen—and why its credibility may be beyond repair.

Expect a "revolt" among 60 Minutes staff over Bari Weiss pulling the CECOT segment at the last minute, one network insider told me.

Another CBS News reporter added that a Rubicon had been crossed with this decision, which 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi called "political" and not editorial.

Anyways the funniest part of this is Bari Weiss doesn't seem to realize that journalists love stories about themselves and that she has a ton of competitors who would love CBS market share and will gleefully ratfuck them.

Seeing one of the most important stories of this administration’s violations of human rights downgraded to a trend piece that’s been told already and needs new juice while reviving such ideas as ‘has feminism failed’
Bari Weiss this morning on the 60 Minutes segment: "We need to be able to get the principals on the record and on camera."

Of course, most journalists know that oftentimes people who are the subject of negative reporting don't want to speak on camera or on the record.

The professional Right is unsubtly signalling that they want to murder Jews.

The professional Left is unsubtly signalling that they will not intervene to help “Zionists.”

It is up to decent people to protect our Jewish fellow citizens - with our lives if need be.

I pray we are up to the task.

Gov. Ron DeSantis takes two different approaches when a member of Congress or the Florida Legislature resigns or dies.

Seats likely to be won by Republicans get quick special elections. For seats leaning Democrat, he delays for weeks.

Why did CBS delete this promo and cancel this from airing in full?
