How Bari Weiss Could Really Fix CBS
American Thinker ^ | September 27, 2026 | Todd Gregory, Erik Gregory

Posted on 10/01/2026 3:52:18 PM PDT by TBP

ari Weiss, famously bullied out of her job at the New York Times for thoughtcrimes stemming from independent reasoning, has been at the helm of CBS News for one year.

One year into Weiss’s tenure, and facing an ongoing revolt from her progressive underlings, Weiss’s attempts at reform have seemingly hit a dead end.

To make good on Weiss’s promises of reform, here are ten modest suggestions for topical news stories for 60 Minutes, the flagship program of CBS News.

The Conviction of Karmelo Anthony for the Murder of Austin Metcalf The Berlin Gay Pride Terror Attack The National Crisis of Pedophilic Public School Teachers Sexually Preying Upon Children The Unreported Scandal of ActBlue The Kerfuffle Over GOP Redistricting Sunny Hostin DOJ and FBI Run Amok The Destruction of Lives for Thousands of J6ers The Statistical and Digital Whitewashing of Crime to Create a Phony Impression of White Criminality

Ten stories CBS should cover if it really wants to reform. Weiss has already made it slightly better than the other networks, but there's a long way to go.

Slightly is the right word. Unless another hack Judge emerges the Paramount/WB deal closes 10/10 maybe real reform will happen after that.

Maybe try to report the news. Stop Activism. Quit using incendiary rhetoric. Just the facts.

Who can stand watching any of the networks anymore? Including fake news CNN? I haven’t got my news from any of them for decades. I got sick of being lied to, propagandized and finagled long ago.

I see more than enough of liberal news via clips shown on FNC, NewsMax, OAN, NewsNation.

Not any better. Newsmax has already had to pay out over $100 million in libel damages to Smartmatic and Dominion over its lies in the 2020 election.
