A bombshell lawsuit claims that CBS’ “60 Minutes” has long been a cesspool of sex harassment — including allegations that star correspondent Lesley Stahl once asked a female job applicant whether she would be willing to “use her body to secure stories.” Alexandra Poolos, who worked as a producer for more than 10 years at the prestigious TV news program before she was fired in February last year, filed suit against CBS and its corporate parent, Paramount, in Manhattan federal court on Tuesday, alleging rampant “misogyny” at the Tiffany Network. Among her explosive claims: In 2011, Poolos was interviewed for...

Alexandra Poolos, who was let go from the network last year, alleges the news outlet has a work culture defined by "sexism and misogyny" in which sexual misconduct and harassment by male colleagues went unaddressed.A producer on CBS’s 60 Minutes is suing the network for firing her after she was accused of harassment while turning a blind eye to “far more egregious misconduct” by male employees. The producer, Alexandra Poolos, says in a gender discrimination lawsuit filed against CBS on Tuesday in New York federal court that the company terminated her in violation of civil rights laws after she was...

Former President Donald Trump sought to capitalize on the United Auto Workers strike, calling for their votes and rebuking President Joe Biden's "electric car scam.""The United Autoworkers are being sold down the 'drain' with this all electric car scam," Trump posted Sunday on Truth Social. "They'll be made in China, under Crooked Joe's China First policy. Autoworkers, vote for Trump — I'll make you victorious & rich."UAW President Shawn Fain rejected talk about being a rubber stamp on an endorsement for Biden in the upcoming presidential election."We expect action, not words," Fain told CBS News' "Face the Nation" on Sunday,...

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening news shows once again proved why the American people should treat their coverage of President Joe Biden’s economy like the deceptive propaganda that it is. The U.S. national debt reached a scary milestone when it surged over a whopping $33 trillion, The New York Times reported Sept. 18 based on newly available Treasury Department data. The development ironically comes amidst left-wing media outlets like The Times bashing House Republicans for daring to push for deep cuts in wasteful government spending. To put this into perspective, the new daunting figure means that “every household in...

It takes a hefty amount of chutzpah for the ABC, CBS and NBC evening news shows to continue covering up bad news that repeatedly makes Bidenomics look like the disaster it’s been for the U.S. economy. The Hill reported Sept. 12 that the poverty rate rose 4.6 percentage points in 2022, based on data released by the U.S. Census Bureau the same day. This was the measure’s “first increase since 2010.” Specifically, the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM), which accounts for government programs (e.g. food stamps, tax refunds) in addition to income and benefits, spiked to 12.4 percent in 2022 in...

Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday suggested that neither President Joe Biden nor former President Donald Trump were of an appropriate age to lead the nation. Appearing on CBS News, the governor fielded a question as to the ages of Biden, 80, and Trump, 77. Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history while Trump previously held that title. "I think that's absolutely a legitimate concern," the governor said. "The presidency's not a job for someone that's 80 years old, and there's nothing wrong with being 80 obviously. I'm the governor of Florida. I know a lot of people...

CBS News offered a stunning admission that it had "incorrectly" edited a newsworthy exchange between "Face the Nation" host Margaret Brennan and Vice President Kamala Harris, omitting a key part of the interview. In a preview clip that aired Thursday on "CBS Mornings," Brennan is seen asking Harris about age being a factor in the upcoming election with her elderly running mate, 80-year-old President Biden, at the top of the Democratic ticket. "You're 58 now. If you win the second term, as you and the president are running to do, he would be 86 at the end of it," Brennan...

VIDEOLook at the absolute GLEE on the faces of these CBS "Face The Nation" panelists as they discuss how the absurdly early J6 trial date could be moved even EARLIER. They are salivating at the prospect of Trump getting jammed up by all the court cases being thrown at him by a politically weaponized Justice Department. Their highly partisan faces glow with the aura of the Banana Republic.

Elise Finch, the beloved and well-known meteorologist at CBS New York, has died. She was 51. Finch died at a local hospital on Sunday, according to the network’s announcement Monday morning.

LifeSiteNews) — CBS News is taking criticism for publishing a laudatory video that celebrates two homosexual men who see “their” newborn daughter for the first time in the hospital. The video actually goes back to 2017 when the girl was born, but CBS News recently republished it, drawing renewed criticism. “This is the moment Ben and his husband Aaron met their daughter Charlotte for the first time [crying emoji, heart emoji],” CBS News tweeted, along with a minute-long video that celebrates the taking of a daughter from her biological parents to be given to two men in a perverse relationship....

Last weekend, police broke up a major sex-trafficking ring in Colombia, which has become a destination for tourists looking for sex with boys and girls. The police had help from an American who went undercover to rescue the children. Tim Ballard has one mission: to track down child traffickers. Four months ago Colombian authorities asked him to investigate a tip that children were being sold there as sex slaves. American Tim Ballard helped authorities in Colombia bust a major sex-trafficking ring, saving 54 children. CBS NEWS "Within a half hour this individual walks up to me asking me what I'm...

If you listen to the mainstream media, “The Sound of Freedom,” a film about the horrors of child sex trafficking, is nothing more than a paranoid, far-right, “QAnon-adjacent” conspiracy theory — a “fantasy” dreamt up by transphobic extremists and starring a cast of “bigots.” The movie, which decimated Disney’s “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” over the Fourth of July weekend, is based on the true life story of Tim Ballard, a former DHS agent — played by actor Jim Caviezel — who dedicates his life to rescuing children from the clutches of pedophiles who would enslave them. Since...

After a full media cycle of apoplexy and pearl-clutching, which included Andrew Weissmann appearing on MSNBC to declare “It’s the end of Trump,” CBS is now reporting there is no Defense Department memo about attacking Iran – the foundation of the media claims surrounding the leaked audio tapes from Special Counsel Jack Smith. Worse still, and exactly as CTH previously outlined, despite the claims by CNN about how this audio would be used as the “central element” by the prosecution of Trump, the audio and mysterious memo are not part of the Special Counsel case. ..... Snip..... (Via CBS) –...

We live in interesting times. The old media giants are just money-losing properties out of phase with a new arrangement in which networks, free and cable, are being replaced with streaming subscription packages. When Discovery found it had CNN on its hands, it tried to clean house because the cable news network is an unwanted drain. But an even bigger legacy name in news may be circling the drain. Think Cronkite and Rather. Equity analyst Steven Cahall of bank Wells Fargo gives Paramount Corp. another “1-2 years” of throwing “good money… after bad,” chasing a streaming profit that may never...

ABC’s “World News Tonight” and “CBS Evening News” on Thursday evening ignored the bombshell IRS whistleblower allegations that Hunter Biden received preferential treatment from the Justice Department (DOJ) regarding probes into tax violations. On Thursday morning, House Republicans released transcripts of two IRS whistleblowers, one of whom provided evidence that Joe Biden was present when Hunter Biden pressured a Chinese business partner to send them millions of dollars, Breitbart News reported. A second whistleblower also said the DOJ interfered in the effort to investigate Hunter Biden for tax crimes, although Joe Biden’s attorney general recently claimed otherwise.

Trump.The data comes from CBS and YouGov, and sampled a hefty 2,480 U.S. adults between June 7-10th, with a 2.7 percent margin of error.Though considered by many to be Trump’s toughest opponent, Trump and DeSantis are almost as far apart from each other as DeSantis and Senator Tim Scott, who is polling third, 15 points behind DeSantis, with 42...

You probably could have predicted that Joe Biden would take a victory lap after the debt deal finally went through on Thursday. Indeed, I predicted earlier in the day how it would go when I was talking to a family member — Biden would claim what a great bipartisan achievement he’d shepherded while attacking the Republicans over Social Security and Medicare (saying he saved it for Americans). Then he would take no questions.Damn, if I wasn’t right on the money. Of course, it wasn’t anything special — it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to game out their plan. I’ve just...
