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.
NEW: Colorado governor sets new veto record in rejecting bills limiting credit card swipe fees, helping firefighters who get cancer and letting people sue federal immigration agents https://t.co/nUnijvoaW3 #copolitics#coleg
Some guy named Nick Bilton serving an audience of 1 (Bari) service an audience of 1 (Ellison) serving an audience of 1 (Trump). This is how oligarch-authoritarian takeover of media happens
man, who should we believe: someone who's virtually never gotten along with her colleagues in a true newsroom and was previously accused of being a terrible manager at their previous stop, or the multi-Emmy-Peabody-Polk award winner beloved by his co-workers?
The weirdest part of all this is that Weiss and her unqualified minions expect to be given deference by real journalists. Like everyone at 60 minutes was just going to pretend to be happy working for hacks.
I think Scott Pelley has a better future than CBS.
Metro says since Sunday, May 24 they have given out 740 bus fare evasion tickets and have made 46 arrests as part of a crackdown on Metrobus. In some cases officers are going onto buses and pulling people off who were seen on security camera evading the fare elsewhere. #wmata

Bill Simmons on the Nuggets:
“Why do they have to trade anybody to sign Peyton Watson? You have Jokic in your team, pay everyone, F*** off. Kroenke has a gazillion dollars, just keep everybody AND pay Peyton Watson. Your owner is super rich what are we doing?”

Metro has 30K+ cameras and combined with our great @MetroTransitPD team crime is at a record low. If someone commits crime on Metro the team will identify them and they will get arrested. The safety of our customers & staff is our core value.
Gov. Jared Polis, fresh off being censured by the Colorado Democratic Party for letting Tina Peters out of prison early, showed up today to a private, internal party call like this #copolitics
General manager is the one position in pro sports, where jobs aren’t a meritocracy. Nepotism. Old ball coach networks. Ownership whims. Fail, and they continue to get recycled, going from team to team. Very few good GMs. Ton of bad ones.
@rolloqtomasi@Peter_Bukowski You’re not gonna hear me dissing Marino. He’s an all-time great. But Elway got similar to worse rosters further repeatedly. Stats do matter but winning should matter more. It’s the difference between Patrick Mahomes vs. Lamar Jackson/Josh Allen now. Just is.
