December 24th, 2025 5:04 AM

CBS 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi raged against the network’s Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss when she delayed her story on how the Trump administration deported illegal immigrants from Venezuela to a “notorious” prison in El Salvador. Weiss wanted more reporting and more rebuttal from the Trump administration in it.

‘60 Minutes’ Fiasco Prompts Tightening of Standards, Procedures at CBS

December 24th, 2025 1:12 AM

Sharyn Alfonsi’s hack job of a CECOT feature for 60 Minutes, pulled due to what could be charitably described as deficient reporting, has triggered a firestorm within the elitist media. But that’s not all. The report has now also triggered an “overhaul” of standards and procedures at CBS and 60 Minutes.

The Spiked ‘60 Minutes’ Piece on the Salvadoran Jail Was Quite Stupid

December 23rd, 2025 4:49 PM

On Monday night, the now-infamous 60 Minutes segment pulled by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss seemed to have self-deported and aired up in Canada on Global TV, one of its broadcast networks. With it now available to the masses (thanks to social media), we can now give it a full viewing and not a she-said, she-said between Weiss and correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi. Spoiler alert: the piece…

Column: CBS Is Tortured by Trump, Put Their Rage Into '60 Minutes'

May 30th, 2025 6:05 AM

CBS News thinks the crown jewel of its news division is 60 Minutes, the alleged gold standard of investigative journalism on television. But when it comes to politics, their coverage isn’t just slanted. It’s more like a wrecked bus laying on its side, wheels spinning in the air. But they consider themselves the embodiment of "independence."

NewsBusters Podcast: CBS Makes It Springtime for Censors in Germany

February 17th, 2025 9:57 PM

It was a deeply weird Sunday at CBS. Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan argued that free speech led to the Holocaust, as if the Nazis allowed free speech. Then 60 Minutes promoted German prosecutors fining and jailing people for "hate speech" on social media. CBS likes a little "German order" on the internet. Jorge Bonilla joins the show to ponder the CBS mysteries.

NewsBusters Podcast: Sunday at CBS Stinks, Starting with '60 Minutes'

October 16th, 2023 10:48 PM

CBS is so shamelessly partisan than it can pair a puffball interview with Joe Biden and a vicious attack piece on Ron DeSantis in the same 60 Minutes show. Add in leftist tilt at Face the Nation and Sunday Morning, and the whole day stinks for conservatives.

Perverse CBS Says DeSantis Is the Criminal, Not the Illegal Immigrants

October 16th, 2023 12:39 PM

Two years ago, CBS reporter Sharyn Alfonsi unloaded a 60 Minutes hit piece on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and his COVID-vaccine rollout.
