This is a devastating interview.

Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good.

Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

If Landry Shamet played like this in 2021 there’s a good chance the Nets have a championship.

I'm so excited to launch "Sea Change: America's New Great Game in the Arctic," to be published by @crownpublishing on October 6th. If you've ever wondered what it might be like to cruise the High North on an icebreaker, or what the new world order will look like, read this book!"

Reduced to its essentials: “I spoke to Trump”

[Eamon Javers @EamonJavers]

I spoke to President Trump on the phone last hour about the end of negotiations with the Iranians. He told me: “I don’t care if they’re over, honestly. I really don’t care. I couldn’t care less. If they’re over, they’re over. If they’re not, you know, I think they took too much time. Frankly, I thought they started to get very boring.”

Come with me as I learn about each person at the official Israeli delegation at today's Israel Day Parade in New York City.

These are the people some of my fellow Jewish and other New Yorkers demanded Mayor Mamdani stand with today.

From @NYFedResearch, high income people haven't altered their gas consumption a bit, while low income consumers have cut by about 3% since the war started. (Still that's pretty inelastic.) https://t.co/QrHMFK4CGt

“Overhaul” is doing some real work in this tweet

[Brian Stelter @brianstelter]

Here's the Bari Weiss and Tom Cibrowski memo announcing a big overhaul of @60Minutes:

Dear Colleagues,

During the first-ever 60 Minutes broadcast, CBS News’s Harry Reasoner opened the show—a first of its kind television newsmagazine—by calling it “a sort of new approach.” That willingness to break new ground is one of the things that has made 60 Minutes extraordinary from the very beginning.

Over the last six decades, 60 Minutes has shaped national conversations, exposed abuses of power, and set the standard for television reporting. Our responsibility is to preserve that legacy and vital mission by building a show that thrives in the 21st century.

That requires a new approach: expanding 60 Minutes beyond a one-hour television broadcast, deepening its role across CBS News, and holding everything we produce to the ambition, fairness, and fearlessness that have defined 60 Minutes at its best.

To lead this next chapter, we are thrilled to announce that Nick Bilton will serve as Executive Producer of 60 Minutes.

A former columnist at The New York Times and special correspondent at Vanity Fair, Nick has built a two-decade career at the intersection of investigative reporting, documentary filmmaking, and modern storytelling. His work has prompted federal investigations, congressional inquiries, and criminal charges.

Nick is the author of two New York Times bestsellers: Hatching Twitter and American Kingpin. He has served as executive producer and producer on a slate of major Netflix documentaries, including Biggest Heist Ever, Unknown: Killer Robots, and Ashley Madison: Sex, Lies & Scandal. He also directed and produced the HBO documentary Fake Famous. And his forthcoming book, The Company, co-authored with Dwayne Johnson, is set to become a major motion picture directed by Martin Scorsese.

In short, Nick embodies the energy and ambition that animated the founders of the show. We cannot imagine a better fit.

Tomorrow, Nick will begin meeting with staff across the organization to listen, learn, discuss what is working, identify opportunities for growth, and begin laying the groundwork for Season 59 and beyond. The note he just sent to the entire 60 Minutes team is below as well.

This transition also means we will be parting ways with Tanya Simon.

Tanya has dedicated more than three decades to 60 Minutes, and she has served then institution with enormous care, professionalism, and devotion. She led the broadcast during an extraordinarily challenging period with grace and steadiness, and we are deeply grateful for her contributions to the show and its legacy.

The reality facing journalism in 2026 is not easy. Information is fragmented. Algorithms reward outrage. AI-generated misinformation is proliferating. Audiences are overwhelmed. And they have lost trust in legacy media.

That reality makes the mission of 60 Minutes more important than ever.

We want stories that break news, expose wrongdoing, widen public understanding, and force accountability from every institution and every center of power. We want journalism that is surprising, agenda-setting, and impossible to ignore.

That is not just our goal for 60 Minutes. That is our goal for all of CBS News.

We are honored to do that work alongside all of you.

Bari and Tom

GDP does not measure the right things — on this point, many economists agree. Then it gets complicated. Smart story from @lydiadepillis link below

I've been doing this work a long time but nothing prepared me for what I saw on a recent reporting trip in Somalia. I was there to look into rising food and fuel prices from the war in the Middle East landing atop dramatic cuts to the international humanitarian relief system.

20 years after the Democratic Party elite & all of establishment & liberal media rewarded the engineers/fanboys of the Iraq War disaster with policy jobs, prestige media gigs and think tank sinecures, a U.S. Senator has finally - gently - insinuated that was probably a bad idea

[David Sirota @davidsirota]

I want to spotlight two jobs here in particular:

- Executive Editor - this is a job for someone who wants to run an entire award-winning news outlet

- Video Field Reporter - this is a job for someone who wants to be on Capitol Hill to do accountability reporting

Pass it on

[Peter S. Goodman @petersgoodman]

@TallPhilosopher @amanpour It’s appropriate now, in same way that it’s appropriate to discuss UBI, job guarantee, sovereign debt forgiveness, and reparations. These are important discussions that I’m not dismissing. But during a 15 minute television conversation about an immediate, dire emergency, no
