Bari Weiss is Destroying CBS News
Sultan Knish ^ | 13 Sep 2026 | Daniel Greenfield

,b>No raping? No lies? You can’t do journalism that way.

When 60 Minutes debuts its 59th season, the one thing we can be certain of is that the media will announce that it’s a disaster and blame Bari Weiss and clamor for government intervention.

The former New York Times columnist who had the temerity to not only leave the storied paper, but also start her own successful media venture, The Free Press, before getting hired to clean up CBS News, and to do all that while questioning wokeness and defending America and Israel, is more loathed than Trump in media circles. The media hates Trump, but it fears Bari Weiss.

....

It would be awful indeed if Bari Weiss were to tamper with the journalistic legacy of CBS greats like Walter Cronkite, Les Moonves (accused of forcing a woman into oral sex), former 60 Minutes Executive Producer Jeff Fager (accused of sexually harassing women), former 60 Minutes correspondent Charlie Rose (accused of sexually harassing women), former 60 Minutes Executive Producer Don Hewitt (accused of sexually harassing women) making “accused of sexually harassing women” into an official requirement for CBS News legends.

At least there was Dan Rather, who broke the network’s curse of sexually harassing women by merely trying to pass off a Microsoft Word document as if it had come from the Vietnam War.

Obviously, Bari Weiss doesn’t belong at CBS News. She hasn’t even raped anyone yet.

“Obviously, Bari Weiss doesn’t belong at CBS News. She hasn’t even raped anyone yet.” I wonder what Leslie Stahl thinks.

Good summary of the CBS News Bari Weiss took over. It is worth revisiting that since she may be put in charge of CNN as well.

Is this good news or bad news? Hard to tell these days.

Oh good!,Glad to see Greenfield is just tongue-in-cheek in this piece. Bari Weiss rocks. Yet another gifted left-leaner who stared into the abyss of progressive insanity... and saw enough and ran the other way.

I see that the Knish actually used the hypothetical ambush story against Wallace.

I've been posting that for years, most recently in April in this post.

Wow, I had no idea how corrupt the past CBS News executives were.

The future is not bright for Fake News.  Talk about being between a rock and a hard place.

People get their news from the internet and cellphones, not David Muir or George Slopadopolus.

Super Intelligence (SI) from Google Gemini and ChatGPT are making it simple to get solid information, putting pressure on Wikipedia, the Fake Research king of the Net.

MSNow's stock price — Versant Media Group — is in the tank. 

We the People will prevail.  Keep the pressure on these con-artists.

When Katie Couric worked at cbs, her office was right next door to Les Moonves. She claimed she never heard anything about him or what was going on next door.... she is lying of course as it was an open secret there.
