Scott Pelley is out at “CBS Evening News,” Page Six has exclusively learned.

Sources tell us that ‘Poison Pelley’s’ office was being cleared out on Tuesday while the anchor was away on an assignment for the network’s news magazine “60 Minutes.”

Insiders tell us that CBS News president David Rhodes “is making [Pelley] move to ‘60 Minutes,’ ” and that the pair “don’t get on.”

Another TV insider said while Pelley’s ratings have been down, “There’s also been friction between him and [Rhodes].”

Is “60 Minutes” still on the air? Other than football games, we never watch the networks.

There in lies one of my conundrums.

I am moving to a new house in NOV. Comcast or direct TV. I need wireless and prefer a landline phone because we lose power all of the time.
Do any of you smart Freepers have a suggestion as to how I unplug?
Yes, I will have a Generator.

I’ll never forget him smirking on election night. Of course this was early in the evening and his smug pretense at being neutral etc. had me turning off CBS almost immediately.

Sorry I did that since I missed Pelley and Schieffer getting a long overdue dose of reality as the evening progressed.

So what?Just going to be replaced by another leftist.

Trump needs to break up the free TV networks that don’t represent all Americans.

I'm thinking that since CBS chose to fire Pelley while "he was off on assignment" (kinda like Trump fired Comey while 3,000 miles away giving a speech and kept the entire WH in the dark so no one got to his office but the Sessions Justice Department), if there could be a connection to WH leaks.

Pelley might just have been in deep with WH leakers, if classified information was handled by him and the Justice Department might have given CBS the option of cooperating, whereupon they cut Scott lose before he could "sanitize" his office, ala Comey's treatment.

I know nothing, just wondering because no network cares about anything other than stars staying put.

Pelley and CBS nightly insulted half of the US electorate. This POS deserves a spot alongside Brian Williams.

I’ll believe it when I see the imprint of his door on his ass.

What a POS this guy is. I guess CNN will pick him up.
