Judging from Nora O'Donnell's 60-Minute "interview" with the idiot-in-chief, she and every other once reliable reporter at CBS will be nothing more than ventriloquist dummies, mouthing whatever words Weiss and Ellison direct them to say. And that's the way it is, as Walter Cronkite spins in his grave fast enough to generate electric power to all the eastern seaboard for a month.
This is the best take I've seen so far. Bari Weiss is, indeed, a hack. A censorious scold who tried and failed to get the editorial staff at the Times to agree with her ridiculous POV. When that failed, she gathered up her skirts and flounced off.
Perfect.
Now, do Lena Dunham. Another entitled, overhyped no-talent.
For what I read about her, ridiculous hack is the most accurate description about this individual who seems to be confused about what journalism supposed to be. I think for those of us who are people of color, we are so tired of the BS from people like her...and others who pretend that they are progressive but yet are still racist to the core. And yes, trust me that exist...especially those folks who worked her to make sure there's no space for us JOCs.
This is so depressing I could cry. This damage feels permanent. Liberalism is being demolished. I don't recognize the country. How many decades have to pass before we can restore things. I fear never.
You know what was missing from our broadcast media landscape was ANOTHER Fux News. Perfect! Maybe CBS can now hire Megan Skelly to inflict herself on the airwaves again. I hear Fuxker Carlson needs an on air gig again to boost his manliness.
Let's face it, the richest people in the world owning or in the process of buying up these media outlets don't give a shit if they kill the brands. In fact, killing the brands of traditional media is more a feature than a bug for these guys. They don't want anyone to trust anything.
CBS caved. And THAT means they will never be able to say no to Trump again. Once you cave the first time, that's a signal for him to test you over and over again. Like a cat playing with a mortally wounded rat
The Free Press is such a rag and so badly misnamed that I once scolded someone online (publicly) for linking me to an article on it. It was the first time I'd ever seen it and as I told them, would definitely be the last.
The only people watching CBS for news now are those who watch legacy cable because they can't figure out how to stream Paramount+ for their Tony and Ziva fix.
Ellison might as well have bought a buggy whip factory.
LOL! I was just saying the same above. We already HAVE right wing media OUT THE ASS.. WHY the fuck would you want to be THIS low on the totem pole and compete with right wing giants like Fox and right-wing-talking-point-trojan-horses like CNN and Sinclair and more and more MSNBC?
You know its not about the money. Its about being part of an authoritarian state media. If it was about the money, an explicitly progressive news media network would fucking CLEAN UP because there is effectively NO COMPETITION and a HUGE demographic who desperately wants one.
People who say we don’t have news media representing “conservative voices” are the same ones bitching about Christian persecution. Fantasy world where they are always correct.

She’s a useful idiot in service of corporate media.
Think your piece might benefit from, I don't know, calming down a bit. Try writing something maybe in the style of...Mark Carney perhaps?

I'm proud to say that I was shitlisted by Bari Weiss's "Free Press"

She’s pure offshore dark capital toxin.
Whenever I hear Bari’s name, I hear an audience saying Weisssss

All that effort and humiliation to get the merger to go through only to scuttle CBS entirely?

We can make CBS worthless if we stop watching it. The same goes for CNN and TikTok. We have the power, people.
I wish I could stop watching it but I can't. because I never did in the first place
