CBS News has fired a female staffer believed to have had access to the tape of Amy Robach raging against ABC, Page Six understands. The staffer previously worked at ABC News and had access to audio of ABC anchor Robach caught on a hot mic complaining her bosses had failed to air her interview with Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Guiffre. A TV source said the woman was let go on Wednesday, after ABC execs alerted CBS.

It has to be 'snowing' inside CBSNEWS for the SNOW JOB being put out on Joe Biden. Take a pretty face (Norah O'Donnell) and polish a piece manure, and you have a snow job. Unfortunately, things coming out of CBSNEWS, ABCNEWS, and NBCNEWS are either hit pieces on conservatives, or snow jobs on liberals. Brainwashing is another term for the manure/feces coming out of ABCNEWS, CBSNEWS, & NBCNEWS. To describe Joe Biden one just needs two important words: BLACKMAIL and BRIBERY. Joe Biden is also CORRUPT and a sleaze. That is why there is a need for 'SNOW JOBS' by...

For the past 10 days or so, ever since the latest deep state attempt to depose President Trump manifested itself in a phony “scandal” involving a phone call he made to the leader of Ukraine, we’ve been asking: Where the hell is Lindsey Graham? The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee hasn’t scheduled a single hearing or subpoenaed a single witness from the intelligence community who supposedly “heard” President Trump “threaten” to withhold aid from Ukraine in a “quid pro quo” exchange for help in exposing the real corruption: Joe Biden’s very real threat to Ukraine and his son’s sweetheart...

While Democrats consider more than 20 candidates hoping to become their party's nominee, the Republican National Committee is forging ahead with an August ground-game push to boost President Trump's reelection campaign in more than a dozen states. The RNC and the Trump Victory Committee launched an "Open for Business" tour last week featuring more than 30 events across 17 states to highlight the administration's economic achievements. In conjunction with the events hosted by surrogates, the committees have launched a six-figure digital ad buy targeting cities like Cedar Rapids, Des Moines, West Palm Beach, Miami and Las Vegas. The ads, which...

VIDEO Norah O'Donnell debuted as the anchor of the CBS Evening News on July 15 and, of course, her broadcast was chock full of the utterly predictable attacks upon President Donald Trump. In addition, she dished up gobs of nausea by invoking the name of Edward R. Murrow to go to Level 10 mode of extreme smugness and to imply that she will be using television as a "weapon" to continue attacking Trump. Note: My running commentary on these brief clips provides added value thus constituting fair use plus I've had all my shots. Therefore no need to go thru...

VIDEO If it isn't wacky enough that Nike instantly caved to Colin Kaepernick when he objected to the Betsy Ross flag design on their shoes as somehow being a racist symbol, CBS News also hyped this PC insanity as being somehow rational.

60 Minutes corespondent Scott Pelley says he was let go as host of the CBS Evening News because he spoke up to his bosses about the “hostile” workplace within the network’s news division. In an interview with CNN’s Brian Stelter on Sunday’s Reliable Sources, Pelley explains, “We’ve been through a dark period of the last several years of incompetent management and sort of a hostile work environment within the news division. I lost my job at the evening news because I wouldn’t stop complaining to management about the hostile work environment.” Pelley — who served as anchor of the CBS...

It’s anchors aweigh at CBS News. The division’s president, Susan Zirinsky, announced major on-air talent changes Monday for the network’s ratings-challenged evening newscast and morning program. As expected, Norah O’Donnell will exit her role as co-host of “CBS This Morning” to become the new anchor of “CBS Evening News,” replacing Jeff Glor. Starting this fall, the program will originate full time from Washington for the first time in its 71-year history. She will also be a contributor to “60 Minutes.” O’Donnell’s co-host John Dickerson will also leave the morning program to become a correspondent for the newsmagazine “60 Minutes.” He...

... says it was 'flattening out my personality'

one of the great things about the internet is that we can hear from an actual expert in destructive testing of gas cylinders in a controversy where condition of gas cylinder is of critical importance. Not just from NGOs and neocon think tanks. Dan Rather's downfall came because (as I recall) a typewriter specialist was able to recognize that fonts in forged document were not available in 1970s. An expert in relevant narrow topic observed detail that eluded the news reporters and think tanks. outing of Dan Rather was cool and one of first examples of outside eyes on establishment...

CBS NEWS POLL: 76 percent of viewers approved of what they heard in Pres. Trump's #SOTU speech; 72 percent said they approved of Pres. Trump's ideas for immigration.

No generous severance package for former CBS Corp. chairman and CEO Leslie Moonves. The CBS board of directors announced Monday that it has completed its investigation into the myriad allegations of sexual misconduct against its former chief and has decided there are grounds to “terminate for cause.” The most recent hit against the embattled executive came last month in the New York Times, which quoted a former actress named Bobbie Phillips who alleged that Moonves forced himself on her in 1995, when he ran Warner Bros. Television. The story came almost three months after a bombshell report in The New...

Time's Up Legal Defense Fund and Time's Up Entertainment are among the 18 recipients of a $20 million donation from CBS Corporation, an amount determined when Leslie Moonves was pushed out as CEO over sexual misconduct allegations, according to a press release issued Friday. The money was earmarked for groups focused on "eliminating sexual harassment in the workplace." The funds will be distributed within 60 days of execution of the agreement, according to a person familiar with the arrangement. The amount each group will receive was based on their proposal and "capacity to absorb funds relative to their annual budgets."...

The camp set up for the Central American migrant caravan in Tijuana was on “lockdown” on Sunday as Mexican residents of the city attempted to storm the area in protest. The unwelcome arrival of the caravan had put tremendous pressure on Tijuana’s resources resulting in many locals taking to the streets in opposition. It was a serious and dangerous development that went completely unreported during ABC’s World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News Monday evening. The CBS Evening News kept up its record of being the only broadcast network evening program treating the caravan seriously. In a news brief, anchor Jeff...

President Trump will appear on CBS's "60 Minutes" this Sunday, according to a Thursday night CNN report. The interview, which was reportedly taped on Thursday at the White House, will be conducted by the show's longtime correspondent Lesley Stahl.

The exec had been at CBS News for 36 years and has been a leading figure at the news division for decades. The tenure of Jeff Fager as the executive producer of 60 Minutes is over. "Jeff Fager is leaving the company effective immediately," read a statement from CBS News president David Rhodes on Wednesday. "Bill Owens will manage the 60 Minutes team as Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews and I begin the search for a new executive producer of the program. 60 Minutes is the most significant news broadcast on television."

"60 Minutes" executive producer Jeff Fager is leaving CBS News "effective immediately" amid allegations of inappropriate behavior, the company announced on Wednesday. "Bill Owens will manage the 60 Minutes team as Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews and I begin the search for a new executive producer of the program," CBS News president David Rhodes said in a statement. A New Yorker article in August implicated Fager, along with former CBS CEO Les Moonves, in a series of allegations of sexual misconduct at the company. Moonves stepped down from his position earlier this week.

Warning! “Conservatives” who constantly search for things to be afraid of will not be able to read this all the way through. A report CBS probably wishes it never let see the light of day, says its polling “expert” doesn’t see a blue wave; in fact, a careful reading of the CBS report says a red wave may very well be on its way. CBS has adopted the LA Times/USC Dornsife method of polling by compiling a large sample of respondents who are willing to be polled periodically on a continuous basis. What CBS found is that there is no...

CBS chairman and CEO Leslie Moonves is accused of sexual misconduct by six women in a New Yorker exposé published Friday, the latest high-profile media figure at the center of allegations of misconduct as a result of the "Me Too" movement. Six women who previously worked with Moonves told The New Yorker's Ronan Farrow that Moonves sexually harassed them, while four described forcible touching or kissing. “What happened to me was a sexual assault, and then I was fired for not participating,” Emmy-nominated actress and writer Illeana Douglas told the publication. “There was the big sell—he was telling me, ‘You’re...

The CBS CEO, one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, is accused of unwanted kissing and touching in a New Yorker article set to be published Friday. The New Yorker is poised to publish an article by Ronan Farrow that includes allegations of sexual misconduct on the part of embattled CBS chairman and CEO Leslie Moonves, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. A spokesperson for The New Yorker says, “We don't comment on pieces we haven't published." Sources with knowledge of the article say it delves into the broader culture at CBS and will publish later today on the magazine’s...
