A “stunned Anderson Cooper watched as 60 Minutes boss sobbed through a shocking resignation meeting,” according to the Daily Mail.
“Anderson Cooper looked on as his 60 Minutes boss cried while resigning amid corporate pressure brought by Donald Trump’s recent lawsuit,” the report adds.
Yep, just when you think this story cannot get any more delicious, we discover that the serial liar who destroyed the reputation of 60 Minutes like no one since Dan Rather, is a literal crybaby.
Bill Owens, who took charge of 60 Minutes in 2019, and who has been with CBS for 37 years, announced his self-deportation on Wednesday through a memo. Just prior to the news going public, however, he gathered together his fellow serial-lying elite to drop the news personally.
“So an email is going to go out now that says I’m leaving,” Owens announced while holding back tears in front of CBS News chief Wendy McMahon, Anderson Cooper, Lesley Stahl, and others.
“It’s clear that I’ve become the problem. I am the corporation’s problem,” he continued, in a defiant, self-righteous speech that eventually drew applause.
…
“People have asked, should we walk out?” the EP of the prestigious CBS newsmagazine since 2019 continued, suggesting he was facing pressure from the network brass. “No. The opposite,” Owens continued.
“I really, really, really believe that this will create a moment where the corporation will have to think about the way we operate — the way we’ve always operated — and allow us to operate like that.”

I’d like to give Owens something to cry about.
“I really, really, really believe that this will create a moment where the corporation will have to think about the way we operate — the way we’ve always operated — and allow us to operate like that.”
You mean as liars?
Of all the media POSes 60 Minutes is amongst the worst.
I’d like to see a video of that.
Hans & Franz: Ha hah! Lissen to this leetle gurly man!
Arnold Schwartzenegger: Hello, hello. I am back!
Hans: Oh, Arnold, I can’t believe how properly pumped up you really are!
Arnold: Have you been lissening to this leetle gurly man?
Hans: Ja! Ja! By my rock hard leg I can swear to you, he iss a gurly man!
Franz: He must be der most gross gurly mann in die welt.
Arnold, Franz & Hans: Ve vant to pump him up!
The pussy can dish it, but can’t take it.
Like all lefties.
In other words, “They caught me red handed faking stories and trying to influence the election, so I’ve been fired. But first I’m gonna stand here and act self righteous and pretend I’m sacrificing myself for the good of the company”.
Anyone unclear about the alphabet media modus operandi here, read “Ambush At Fort Bragg” from Tom Wolfe’s collection of short stories ‘Hooking Up’.
It’s no different than what Winston Smith did in the novel 1984.
The other night we watched “Truth” about 60 Minutes, and how Dan Rather and Mary Mapes lied about GWB. A character in the movie even read FReeper Buckhead’s post debunking Rather’s story.
And you’re right, “60 Minutes is amongst the worst”.

After working in news program production for 37 years, he should have known better than to show clear political bias like that. Did he think he was still dealing with RINOs and the Uni-Party branch of the GOP?
Leslie Stahl, this could have been you!
...According to the ACLJ, the new documents show Samantha Power, who made over 260 unmasking requests to spy on the incoming administration was also colluding with the mainstream media, blatantly insulting President-elect Trump and actively sought ways to undermine the incoming administration.
Another important thing to remember is the Obama administration also changed the way intelligence is shared throughout the various agencies. Instead of only a few agencies sharing intel, Obama’s evil administration, at the last minute expanded it to all 16 intel agencies which of course increases the chances of leaks to the media.
Via the ACLJ:
The evidence we obtained shows email chains to and between Power and her Counselor, Nikolaus Steinberg, just three days after the election in which Power actively discusses an “idea to seek maximum amplif[ication]” of her politically biased messaging. Steinberg first raised the idea of “a useful (and somewhat cathartic) vessel to Channel some post-Trump messages about who we are.” Minutes later Power responds, “Need to move out on 60 mins idea to seek maximum amplif. [sic] I can write Charlie or bill Owens if he’s still there.”
After a brief discussion ensued over who would reach out, later that evening, Steinberg sent Power a “Draft pitch email” for her to send to 60 Minutes, yet that draft is completely redacted. Subsequently, he suggested doing the pitch to 60 Minutes or CBS Sunday Morning on the issue of refugees, stating, “with the hook being the foreshadowing that Trump and company may try to undo all of this.” Minutes later, Power sent an email to Bill Owens, the Executive Editor of 60 Minutes: “We’re still reeling here, as you might imagine. . . . Not withstanding this, Tuesday’s results have given us an even greater sense of urgency to get our work done in our last few months. 70 good long days left!”...
Who has the pic of the crying Asian chick?

On that “Truth” movie, there was a scene where Mary Mapes was at her computer scrolling through an obvious FreeRepublic thread. Interesting.
