CBS wants more balance on the stories they produce

BBS News Head pulls sory

"The weekend ended with a big hullabaloo about Bari Weiss, head of the failing news division at CBS. Weiss pulled a story on 60 Minutes because it was incomplete.

She wanted more balance and better reporting on the piece. Cries of censorship were immediate and frankly, unconvincing.

“One of Ms. Weiss’s suggestions was to include a fresh interview with Stephen Miller, a White House deputy chief of staff and the architect of Mr. Trump’s immigration crackdown, or a similarly high-ranking Trump administration official, two of the people said. Ms. Weiss provided contact information for Mr. Miller to the 60 Minutes staff.

“Ms. Weiss also questioned the use of the term migrants to describe the Venezuelan men who were deported, noting that they were in the United States illegally, two of the people said.”

CBS did not censor Sharyn Alfonsi. Weiss asked her to tell the other side of the story. We will see if she does." [Don Surber]
