Oh, yeah, totally innocent lmao
Quiet Piggy! You are a disgrace! For saying out loud all of the disgraceful things I've done. I'm exonerated! 😂
More best part is when he starts in on his defensive tantrum and she says, “oh, so you think he’s talking about you?”
CBS is garbage now, but that was pretty good.
Does CBS lie? Why have you determined they are garbage? I don’t usually watch the news, I’d rather read it so I have no idea why CBS would be garbage
I’m too lazy to type out an answer for something that is common knowledge for anyone that takes in any type of media.
AI summary.
There has been a significant and controversial rightward shift. Here’s what happened:
The ownership change: Skydance, led by David Ellison, merged with Paramount (CBS’s parent company) in 2025. David Ellison is the son of Oracle billionaire Larry Ellison, a major Trump donor.
The editorial shake-up: CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss was hired after Paramount acquired her news blog, The Free Press, for $150 million. Weiss had no prior TV news experience and reports directly to David Ellison.
Staff tensions: Weiss told staff in an all-hands meeting to leave if they didn’t support her vision, acknowledging the network had received poor public reception since her takeover. Just yesterday, CBS News’ London bureau chief of 23+ years was ousted after clashing with Weiss over coverage of Trump’s war with Iran and the Gaza conflict.
The ratings hit: Critics say CBS has experimented with a more accommodating posture toward MAGA-aligned voices, which risks satisfying neither traditional CBS viewers nor conservative audiences who already have Fox News.
The Trump dinner: Just last week, Trump attended a lavish D.C. dinner hosted by David Ellison, with CBS News executives and Bari Weiss present — which drew protests outside.
This is a billionaire with Trump ties buying the network and installing friendly management. The editorial direction has clearly shifted and is generating significant internal and public backlash.
