What a disgusting, repugnant, arrogant prick Pelley is. I wish him nothing but the very worst.

Even more proof this miserable cock sucker was insufferable.

quote:

The REAL Scott Pelley exposed after 60 Minutes star was fired: CBS insider twists knife by dropping utterly humiliating network secrets... and reveals every poisonous detail of fight that detonated petulant anchor's career

LINK
quote:

Pelley, 68, erupted at 60 Minutes' newly appointed executive producer Nick Bilton at a meeting on Monday, during Bilton's first day on the job. He ranted that CBS News's new editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, who hired Bilton, 'has no qualifications for her job' and that she is 'murdering' 60 Minutes. Turning to Bilton, Pelley raged: 'You have slender qualifications for this job.' Pelley went on to tell Bilton in front of stunned colleagues that 'you will never be welcome here'. When Bilton insisted to Pelley and other co-workers that he cared 'so deeply about this institution', referring to 60 Minutes, Pelley snapped: 'Oh please!'

quote:

'They think they're infallible and have this arrogance. They are not willing to adapt or evolve to anything,' the source said. 'They were never going to give Nick (Bilton) a chance... Their strategy has worked, until now.'

I wish I had watched 60 minutes enough to even know who Scott Pelly was - so I could better categorize my combination of elation and satisfaction regarding mr Pelly's new status in life.

Hope he suffers greatly and snubbed by all.

What an insufferable piece of shite.

I have no idea who this guy is. I stopped watching 60 Minutes before he even showed up.

That is how irrelevant network programming has become.

Yeah, right. What a crock of bullshite. He was so willing to be pushed and was so open to new ideas he wouldn’t even meet with the new guy.
These media people are so full of shite that it’s frightening.

Did he ever do a piece on the people harmed by the crimes committed by the illegal aliens? - or do a piece comparing the living conditions now as compared to any period governed by conservative leaders? - or even recognize the abject bullshite shoveled forth by the democrat party?

Bilton’s response to Pelley should be…

I know what it's like to lose. To feel so desperately that you're right, yet to fail nonetheless. It's frightening, turns the legs to jelly. But I ask you, to what end? Dread it, run from it, destiny arrives all the same. And now, it's here. Or should I say: I am.


*snap!*

Don’t fret, Scotty. You’ll get all sorts of affirmations from your TDS brain soaked, woke, mentally crippled acquaintances.

60 Minutes should have had a film crew rolling when they did this announcement or meeting for a special Inside 60 Minutes Special Segment. They probably do, but it is probably surveillance footage from room cameras which may or not be mic’ed.


Who knew behind the scenes newsroom activity would have more drama than an episode of the Real World.

Imagine being a shitbag whose only agenda in life is disparaging an elected President of The United States.

And when told to stop you pout and lose a 7million dollar a year job.

Another Victim of TDS and rack one up for Trump.

Because current day news media are filled with mentally weak narcissists who are a little more than adult children.

The insufferable bias displayed by SP and 60 Minutes was why it became unwatchable after the capture of CBS in 2016.

It was no longer news …. it became propaganda

I'm astonished this guy is getting as much press as he is. He's a non-entity, known mostly by the blue haired audience of CBS/60 Minutes and will be forgotten in a year. He's about to find out what ever other dipshit television 'journalist' has discovered in recent years: he has no actual audience, whatever notoriety/popularity he had was solely a function of his job. He'll be doing a podcast in his basement interviewing Don Lemon, Jim Acosta, et al.

I didn’t know who that dude was until his shitcanning hit the news. Sounds like the demise of another left wingnut to me

Pelley has become a ‘Phantom’ of the (Progressive) cultural reality around him. That reality owns his soul. Albeit he is a true believer. Many are.

“Behold, I will send them great delusion that they will believe a lie”. It is a given the muh Journalist Pelley would pay tribute to George Floyd while condemning the stabbing victim in the UK who was hand cuffed by the cops on the word of the (truly racist) murderer that the victim had called him a racial slur. The victim bled out while the cops denied his pleas for help while searching his phone for the damning texts that would prove his racism. Zero doubt where the delusion SC would come down on this.

He’ll write a book to rationalize his delusional in his own mind and paint himself as a martyred hero. But just like with Lucifer, they can run but they can’t hide. Truth ultimately rules.

Disgusting and nauseating. But it will get worse.

(Edit to correct misspelling. Big thumbs and AI Phone telling me what I think).

Just like every other media personality that got fired or “quit”, no one will care or even wonder what happened to them.
