I can't believe I'm going to defend CBS but their usual model is to save the best for last on 60 Minutes. The "big ticket" segments are generally later in the program, especially during the NFL season when more eyes will be watching. It's part of how the leftist media works -- pimp the big thing and keep everyone watching through the so-so segments.
Loved it when Smelly Pelly said...Republicans don’t like you and Democrats don’t like you...
Trump: No, the ESTABLISHMENT doesn’t like me.
I honestly don’t think Pelly knows exactly what the term means! He paused for a bit, looking like he was trying to figure that out :)
“Pelley is a leftist puke. Can you imagine him or other media pukes submitting that line of interrogation to Zero, Hillary, Plugs, Bernie or the other rodent cretins ?”
Democrat Socialists get a tongue bath
Republican Conservatives get an interrogation
I think that you are not seeing the technique the mediots use.
They ask a question with some level of specificity, and then you answer with the appropriate specificity. Then the follow-up questions are designed to twist the interview and you into knots and contradictions and then you look like an idiot.
Trump knows this. He doesn’t fall into the trap. I haven’t seen the interview, and don’t need to. Pelley is a sanctimonious jerk and I have no desire to look at his smarmy face. He is just another democRAT activist masquerading as a reporter.
You know their ratings had to be over the top, with Trump on, tonight.
Courtesy re-ping to the OP. I’ll emphasize that Pelley is strongly pro-mooselimb and anti-Israel. He’s an American-hating, anti-Texas leftwing Methodist.
Yes and it was a good answer. I’m just saying the question was not inappropriate. People do have questions about how Trump is going to accomplish all this stuff.
Complaining because the left wing media does not question the left wing candidates is wasted breath. They never will.
Here’s why. Trump didn’t give details today because that happens tomorrow. He wasn’t going to let Pelley or cBS preempt his own scheduled press conference at 11 AM.
Look up “smarmy” in your dictionary/
You’ll find the face of Scott Pelley.
Yes, indeed SeeBS did get a big bump from Donald Trump but, best of all, he used them for his own purposes. I can't wait to see Trump's tweets about the hostile, mean-spirited unfair treatment he got tonight. Scott Pelley was worse than Me-GYN Kelley with his third-degree style of questioning. He kept cutting Trump off before completing an answer.
PELLEY:
You know, never in human history has there been so much information available to so many people.
But never in human history has there been so much bad information available to so many people.
And I think people are looking for brand names that they can trust and CBS News is one of those.
The other half of this is that folks are busy. They’re going to work, they’re going to school they’re getting the kids off to school, and they care about the world; they want to know about the world but they don’t have a lot of time to spend on that.
So what were offering at the evening news is, within 30 minutes we’re going to tell you about the 12 most important things that happened in the world.
And you’re going to get that from the CBS News brand, which you already trust.

Your comment suggests you are ill informed.
Ah no. That's what we have now.
We need across the board low taxes.
“I honestly don’t think Pelly knows exactly what the term means!”
-—Oh, he knows what it means. Pelly thinks that since we elected the people in the “establishment” we all agree with their policies & positions without question. What he fails to grasp, deliberately or otherwise, is that GOPe candidates use lies & deceit to get elected and screw the voters in return. So when Pelly states that Republicans don’t like Trump he means Washington, not the voters.
I would bet there are quite a few center-right Dem’s out there who are just as dissatisfied with the Dem’s as we are with the GOPe
Since he's from San Antonio, Smelley Pelley probably has some mexican blood in him. That explains why his diction is like someone not thoroughly familiar with American English. Either that or his heavy drinking.
How many details did George W. Bush give? How many heads of state did you ever hear him mention? Let me tell you. Absolutely none.
Scott Pelley aims for ‘60 Minutes’ magic

Pelley, 53, is a serious reporter’s serious reporter.
“CBS has been called liberal for a lot of years,” he said. “It probably harkens all the way back to Edward Murrow.”
“Is our goal to drive it right down the middle and be fair to everyone involved? Absolutely,” he said. “We are going to tell the news as flat and straight as we possibly can.”
Pelley was one of the first reporters on the scene at the World Trade Center on 9/11, and got the exclusive interview with Bush on the one-year anniversary of those attacks.
Pelley believes that total commitment to hard news can make a difference in the ratings.
“Pandering to a demographic is not what we are about,” he said. “We are about the journalism. We are about the storytelling.”
According to the website celebritynetworth.com, Pelley earns $7 million a year, a raise this year from his earlier reported $5 million yearly salary

And you KNOW they edited the hell out of the interview and came up with the best they could to make him look bad. I thought he handled it skillfully.
When are you going to tell Free Republic how you feel about the new Army Chief being a faggot? When are you going to give us your opinion on the repeal of DADT?
