Ignoring the growing ā60 Minutesā controversy appears to be the networkās path forward.
Discussion of the growingĀ 60 MinutesĀ controversyĀ was conspicuously absent from a CBS editorial meeting on Tuesday morning.
The networkās MAGA-curious new editor-in-chief, Bari Weiss, who personally spiked a segment critical of the Trump administration that was set to air Sunday night, was on the call but did not address the now-viral report that aĀ Canadian affiliate mistakenly aired.
The Washington PostĀ andĀ Vanity FairĀ reported that Weiss, 41, joined the meeting via Zoom and āwaved hiā from her car but did not speak.Ā CNNās Brian Stelter reported that theĀ 60 Minutes controversy was not mentioned during the meeting.
I continue to be at a loss to understand the mechanics of how enough people will effectively organize and focus their collective effort to cause change for the good. Most populist revolutions seem to end poorly, even if they succeed in displacing the incumbent regime.
