Sharyn Alfonsi Rips CBS News’ “Chilling” MAGA Appeasement As ’60 Minutes’ Contract Ends; Paramount Rebuffs Fears About CNN Future

After a brief burst of good ratings results, CBS News is once against under a dark cloud of allegations of MAGA appeasement and corporate overlord overreach.

With her contract now expired and inhibitions lapsed, longtime 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfsonsi tore the Bari Weiss-run division a new one over the direction the onetime home of Walter Cronkite has gone since Donald Trump‘s “good friend” David Ellison bought Paramount last year.

“Fearless, independent reporting has always been the defining standard at 60 Minutes,” Alfonsi said Wednesday, calling her exit from the newsmagazine after months of butting heads with Weiss “a deliberate choice to penalize a journalist for refusing to sanitize factually accurate reporting, and it sends a chilling message to the entire newsroom.”
