MAGA-curious CBS News chief Bari Weiss has reportedly been venting to journalists about a 60 Minutes correspondent who stood up to her decision to pull a politically sensitive report just before broadcast.
Weiss, a TV novice who was parachuted into the role of editor-in-chief by nepo-billionaire David Ellison after his Paramount takeover last year, is said to have targeted veteran correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi in background briefings with selected reporters.
Status reported on Tuesday night that Weiss, 41, had contacted several journalists who had covered the firestorm surrounding her decision in December to abruptly pull a 60 Minutes episode anchored by Alfonsi on El Salvador’s notorious CECOT prison.
