Puck's @DylanByers on the firing of Scott Pelley: "It's very possible that we're going to arrive at a moment in a matter of weeks if not days, where there is no existing talent left at '60 Minutes.'"

NEW: The ‘60 Minutes’ Adult Daycare Era

Bari Weiss’s takeover of CBS News, just eight months ago, has somehow already produced a decade’s worth of mess, reaching embarrassing new lows with Scott Pelley’s self-mythologizing tantrum and subsequent firing. How long before David Ellison sends in a pro to clean up after her?

JP Morgan needs a pump and dump strategy for unloading the airport and we need to know if @MarkJCarney and Toronto MPs are going to stop this insane scheme. #TOPoli #Cdnpoli

The way everything that happens at CBS gets leaked, I’d swear the media had listening devices planted there.

Every landlord has a lawyer. The families they evict don’t.

I work with BASTA Universal because we give families that same protection, completely free.

Predatory landlords evict for profit. We defend, because housing is a human right.

Gratitude isn’t just for the good times. The real practice is finding it in your worst moments.

And I promise you, it’s there.

Gratitude can turn what you thought broke you into the very thing that made you whole.

[Gentleman Doofus @GentleDoofus]

On one side, you have a seasoned journalist with decades of credibility and colleagues who can speak to his integrity, on the other, you have a lifelong bullshit artist who has failed upward by flattering the powerful. I just don’t know who to believe.

I worked at CBS News for almost 6 years. It was a place that frequently drove me crazy bc of how resistant it was to change. How difficult it was to get things done bc you had to fight so many people and their “Cronkite and Murrow would roll over in their graves if they saw” mentality.

For those who think Scott Pelley was part of the problem, you are wrong. Yes he could be rigid and a stickler for certain traditions. But I will tell you now the Gen Z people I worked w all loved him. Like me, they forgave a lot of his boomer ways bc we were in awe of investigations he did using hidden cameras exposing snake oil salesmen hurting Americans; showing us how Assad was using chemical weapons on his own people; the pain of rural Americans waiting for half a day to get affordable healthcare in a parking lot of a mobile clinic; his searing interviews w survivors of mass shootings.

Yeah he was old fashioned in some ways. I used to tease him bc he always had trouble pronouncing Beyoncé’s name.

But he was willing to be pushed. He was open to new ideas. The fact that someone like me and someone like him got along so well is proof of that. The guy made me a better thinker and a better journalist.

[Scott Detrow @scottdetrow]

Just talked to Steve Kroft. I asked him if he'd trust what airs on 60 Minutes going forward.

"No. Not like I have done in the past." Kroft said. "There has been a breach of trust."

We will have that interview on All Things Considered and Consider This tonight.

Wow. Reports 60 minutes could lose entire staff in weeks if not days. https://t.co/3jzRePK9Gh

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy just personally blamed Donald Trump for the rise in healthcare costs in our country. Woah.

Today's announcement to review the CRTC’s Online Streaming tax decision is welcome. American firms want to invest in Canada's creative sector, and a fair, nonburdensome framework makes that possible.

Really amazed at all the Canadians who wold rather cut pensions than raise taxes on rich people.

This lack of compassion is the most un-Canadian thing.

Why the fuck is Jake Tapper so obsessed with Biden.

[Variety @Variety]

Scott Pelley fires back at "60 Minutes" after being fired and says Paramount-Skydance is weakening the news show "apparently to curry favor with the Trump administration."

“Last month, '60 Minutes' lost its DNA when our entire senior leadership and two of our best on-air correspondents were cruelly fired without cause. Good people were silenced because they stood up for our audience. They stood for fairness against the forces of political bias; they stood for professionalism against chaos... Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over '60 Minutes' interviews is not how this is done. Incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc."
