60 Minutes corespondent Scott Pelley says he was let go as host of the CBS Evening News because he spoke up to his bosses about the hostile workplace within the networks news division.
In an interview with CNNs Brian Stelter on Sundays Reliable Sources, Pelley explains, Weve been through a dark period of the last several years of incompetent management and sort of a hostile work environment within the news division. I lost my job at the evening news because I wouldnt stop complaining to management about the hostile work environment.
Pelley who served as anchor of the CBS Evening News from 2011 to 2017 went on to share that four or five years ago, he approached management with his concerns. I went to the president of the news division and explained to him that this hostile work environment couldnt go on for women and men and he told me that if I kept agitating about that, internally, that Id lose my job, Pelley reveals. I went to his boss, who told me that he didnt share my concerns. And so, having exhausted the possibilities in the news division, I went to the chairman of the CBS Corporation, who listened to me, very concerned, for an hour, asked me some penetrating questions about what was going on. I didnt hear back from him, but in the next opportunity in my contract, I was let go from the evening news. (At the time, Les Moonves was chairman of CBS Corporation, while David Rhodes served as president of CBS News.)
But with the current new regime at CBS which includes a new chairman, the first woman president of the news division and a new executive producer at 60 Minutes now everything has changed, Pelley says, adding that its all blue sky from here. Im very excited. I know these people, and I know that were on the right track.

I don’t suppose it occurred to Scott to object to the appalling mendacity in the news “reporting.”
First thing that comes to my mind is double agent spies!
Hostile as in unsolicited homosexual advances ? Only thing I can think of as Pelly is so comfortable carrying the Deep States water for them. What else could it be ?
“CBS News’ Scott Pelley: I Was Fired For Complaining About ‘Hostile’ Workplace”
boo, fricking hoo ... i care about this intramural whining amongst the minions of the dying lying leftist fake stream ememedia about the same amount i used to care about Communist propagandists getting booted at Pravda back during the Soviet era ...
Pelley lived by the sword and as such, he died by the sword. I am glad he suffered the inevitable consequences that the leftist world he supported dishes out.
JoMa
So night after night Polly thousands on what’s going on in the world, and about Trump and Russia probe, and we are supposed to believe him, why?
Scott Pelley is one of the most pompous and smug reporters/hosts on TV. His usual posing with his eye glasses is downright laughable.
Scotty baby I feel for you but I just can’t reach! This story is the best report you’ve ever made. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about your pain. So Scotty baby GFY.
“The current new regime at CBS...”
The Royal Typewriter Company also changed management a few years ago.
Personally, I get my news and type my letters on contemporary technologies.
