Oops, looks like he was mad because he was being told to include false info in his reporting

quote:

He continued: “For my part, new management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.

“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. Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.”

Just bringing up Gen Z and "Boomer ways" implies a hostile work place to me, a bunch of crap.

My Mom consumes mainstream network news constantly... She loves 60 minutes. She was telling me about a piece they did on the worlds largest cave, in Vietnam, recently. Sounded interesting. So, I found the piece on YouTube. I could only get through a couple minutes of it because that nerd, Pelley, was the reporter.

Dude is so full of himself. It's obvious he has a personal trainer because he's lost a lot of weight and looks real lean and fit... and he knows it. So, he was wearing his tight outdoor gear and cos playing like he was some explorer/spelunker. The posing and shite he did for the cameras etc. It was so bad. Dude is a mega douche. I'm surprised his head could fit through the doors at CBS.

A 7 million a year job where he barely had to work. Talk about entitled.

Why would he be mad about that? All his reporting was false.

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


Yeah it used to be must watch tv. Then it turned into propaganda. They only tell the truth if it benefits them.

The new guy needs to shite can Lesley Stahl too. Gain some respect back for that show.

This fake knows damn well that he and 60 minutes have done nothing but lie to the American people for years and even decades. Thry lied about Trump/Russia collusion, lied about the Steele dossier, lied about the Hunter Biden laptop, lied about Covid, lied about Brandon's mental condition, etc, etc, etc.







last time some of us watched 60 minutes was when Andy Rooney was still on the show
