The conservatives used to shut down the government over a few hundred million dollars. Seriously.
Yet Trump blows billions and sues the govt for billions and gets a “free” jet from Qatar that the govt will spend a billion on then let him take it with him… and not a peep.
NO LIES 👇 DETECTED.......
A 30-pt swing in South Carolina in November makes me a Senator and retires Lindsey Graham. 🇺🇸
Thanks GlobalTV Canada! 🇨🇦
In an internal email, 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi said new editor in chief Bari Weiss had “spiked” the story and said the government was using silence to “VETO” stories.
I’ve never had to worry about my name or photo being redacted. How about you?
This fucking clown, what a joke he is. He wants to be smooth and charismatic, but all he can muster is "Look at me ma, I'm the VP" energy.
CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.
Ro Khanna: "There are 1,200 survivors. I've met dozens of them. There's not a single person who I met who I don't believe went through extraordinary abuse and trauma."
Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.
Thank you @kerrykennedy.bsky.social for inviting us to join the celebration of the ROBERT & ETHEL KENNEDY HUMAN RIGHTS CENTER. We fully support your fight for Justice, Equality, Peace, Dignity, Diversity & Compassion for ALL.
(and we had a great time doing so!) 🙏 ♥️
Share and tell CBS to air this! Sharyn Alfonsi, the veteran “60 Minutes” correspondent who reported a segment about migrants sent to the El Salvadoran torture prison CECOT, just sent a blistering letter to colleagues, sounding the alarm that Bari Weiss spiked the story for political reasons.
Honored to be sworn in soon as New York City’s 111th(strikethrough) 112th mayor, marking the beginning of a new era for the city that puts working New Yorkers front and center. Tweet bubble reading: “Breaking news! Archival records at @nycrecords confirms that Zohran Mamdani will not be New York City’s 111th Mayor, the the 112th. Learn about how this was discovered and what will happen next. @Gothamist @nycgov #NYC #NYChistory” Quote tweeting Elizabeth Kim: “New: NYC municipal archives has located a 1674 (!) official record that adds to evidence that city missed one mayor’s nonconsecutive 2nd term and is off by AT LEAST one. So Zohran Mamdani is definitely N…” tweet is cut off
Never stop talking about how the supposed president is a child RAPIST!!
Why did CBS delete this promo and cancel this from airing in full?
Bari Weiss is the logical endpoint of corporate media. This is what happens when people who hate journalism are in charge of it. The only way journalism works is when it’s independent from the power it’s supposed to hold to account, which means ownership can’t have anything to do with those in power
60 Minutes, dead at 57. The murder weapon was Bari Weiss.
So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.
News Team, Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier. I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one. We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the story. If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we
have effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient. If the standard for airing a story becomes "the government must agree to be interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state. These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless. CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones.
We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it. When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet. I care too much about this broadcast to watch it be dismantled without a fight. Sharyn
Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.
Pam Bondi just released a new batch of Epstein files.
The RFK, jr effect.
The Presidency was never intended to be a safe haven for criminals.
Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.
They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.
Don't fall for it.
Just watched Netflix documentary on "The New Yorker" and Dick Cavett asked Carol Burnett, "What do you do when you want to let your hair down, presuming that is your hair." She immediately ripped the wig off her head and said, "Well, I take it off."
Comedy over vanity. What a killer, funny move.
Haaland: Affordability is real. We have a president downplaying the suffering that people are experiencing in our country. He is not listening. He’s in a bubble, and you can look at him and see that he’s never had to worry about missing a meal himself.
Just when I thought I couldn't admire the man more...
