Pelley Accuses CBS of Dismantling 60 Minutes
Description
Veteran 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley erupted in a fiery staff meeting, accusing new CBS News leadership—led by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss and executive producer Nick Bilton—of dismantling the iconic program. Calling Weiss’s tenure “murdering” 60 Minutes, Pelley slammed Bilton’s credentials as “slender” and warned that the network is abandoning fearless journalism for access and power protection. Weiss, who praised Bilton as the “perfect leader” for new heights, has yet to address Pelley’s explosive claims, fueling tension as the future of the legendary show hangs in the balance.
