@KatieMiller There is a market, you dumb whore. 60 Minutes is EXTREMELY profitable. At least it was before Bari destroyed it. You people will lie about anything.
@ginamilan_ You America-hating tw@t. The Save America Act isn’t about voter integrity. It’s about stacking the deck against Democrats. You fake patriots are pieces of $hit. History will remember you for exactly who you are!
It is now official. CBS died tonight. I will never watch any CBS content again. No sports, no news, no reality TV, no weather, no nothing. To me, Bari Weiss and Ellison are traitors to our nation. Fuck CBS.
60 Minutes made $206 million in advertising in 2024. It was not a struggling relic. It was the most profitable serious journalism operation in American broadcasting.
Then David Ellison bought Bari Weiss's website for $150 million and handed her CBS News. She spiked a story on El Salvador's CECOT prison. She let Benjamin Netanyahu pick his own interviewer instead of sitting across from Leslie Stahl. She fired the executive producer, two on-air correspondents, and the behind-the-camera producers who actually ran the place.
The replacement EP has never worked a day in broadcast news. Ben Shapiro's Daily Wire endorsed the hire.
This is not mismanagement. Ratings are down across CBS News. The journalism is getting worse. The audience is leaving. But Ellison's other corporate deals - the Warner Bros. Discovery acquisition - got a presidential thumbs-up while Netflix got frozen out. Trump said out loud he would remember which companies played ball.
That's the transaction. CBS News bleeds so that Paramount profits. Sharyn Alfonsi doesn't have a job so that David Ellison gets his merger.
The people who watched 60 Minutes for fifty years to find out what was actually happening in the world... they just lost something that cannot be rebuilt under corporate ownership. Not in this environment. Not while the president is keeping score.
@GrapefruitBasil@Johnny_Joey Kurtz & Hume are right wing conservatives but not MAGA enough for you miscreants. Luckily there aren’t many of you left. Trump is the most unpopular president EVER at this point. He’s destroying our economy, starting wars, & corruptly enriching his family. History won’t be kind.
@Johnny_Joey It wasn’t insubordination, you dumb fck! It was an employee standing up for his coworkers & the institution for which he works. You MAGAts are so pathetic. You’ll defend ANYTHING done in service of Trump - even destroying something like “60 Minutes”. You fcking douche.
Soon:
“I’m Scott Baio.”
“I’m Patricia Heaton.”
“I’m Kevin Sorbo.”
“I’m Roseanne Barr.”
“I’m Andrew Tate. Those stories, plus Tony Hinchcliffe, tonight on 60 Minutes.”
By firing Scott Pelley, editor-in-chief of CBS News Bari Weiss has single-handedly destroyed the most brilliant investigative newsmagazine in network history, 60 Minutes. Weiss exemplifies everything MAGA is about: ego, incompetence, and blithering idiocy.
@KatiePavlichNN@FNC_Ladies_Rule@DrugCzar47@SaraCarterDC@SDCAnews Why do you pretend to be a news show? Why is NewsNation airing a watered-down Hannity in primetime? Is there a progressive equivalent? Yet you MAGAts bitch about the “liberal media”. Go fck yourselves.
The far-right Supreme Court has issued another partisan redistricting decision.
Extremist MAGA justices have done nothing but advance the political interests of the Republican Party.
They have zero credibility.
Melania Trump is credibly accused of being Jeffrey Epstein’s prostitute.
@MELANIATRUMP needs to testify under oath in front of the American people now!
