60 minutes was the anchor for cbs to me. I watched 60 minutes as a child, I loved it because they had the answers before they asked the questions. Always caught the lies first. Mike Wallace, Morley Schaffer, Bernard Shaw, Andy Rooney, harry reasoner, Lesley and all people that made 60 minutes.

We are under a dictatorship and many Americans are wondering how long it will be allowed to continue and where it will all end? State-run media in the United States of America? Will slavery be reinstated? Really, how far will it go? No one is doing anything to stop it.

Slavery will return. Class warfare, changing all the rules to destroy us little people. Things will cost more, we'll be paid less, and because of that we'll have fewer choices left to us. It's happening now.

Stand up to the fukking fascists. It’s a real shame billionaires own most media AND tend to be fukking cowards. Notable exception is Laurene Powell Jobs, owner of The Atlantic.

Billionaires created by gop tax cuts, a media created by the changes in media ownership started by Reagan. The fascists have played a very long game and we didn't want to overreact, instead we hoped they'd sort themselves out. Trump is just a symptom, he's not the disease.

Remember, Paramount doesn't just own CBS, they also own Comedy Central, BET, Showtime Networks, Nickelodeon, MTV and the film studio Paramount Pictures.

If we ever get control of this Republic again, this needs to be repealed.

Our news organizations are not serving the public interest, if they kiss the boots of any administration or public figure.
It is the duty of the news organizations to inform us; and help pint out the lies & deceit of elected officials.

Sad. Owens should stay.

Bill Owens (60 min), and anyone in media, law or governmental positions who refused to bow to the Heritage Foundation, AIPAC or any of the fascist organizations behind Project 2025 should immediately be nominated for elected positions. Bernie Sanders is the unifying figurehead of this coalition.

Why the fukk is POTUS involved AT ALL in corporate MAA petitions? This is mos def fascistic overloading.
Paramount would have won the 60M case if it went to trial so this is just pandering to a tyrant.
Add Paramount to the boycott list. It tanked Tesla so…

It's more than pandering, it's flat out bribery. We will settle the bogus lawsuit and hand you millions if you approve our merger.

CBS News was the "gold standard." Hard truth, deep investigations, interesting output. Edward R. Murrow,. Walter Kronkite. Dan Rather. Sunday Morning, 60 Minutes, Face the Nation. "CBS News has a history of producing high-quality journalism since its inception..." Sad that it's all gone now.
27/35
maxpw.bsky.social
The names Murrow, Kronkite and Rather are famous in the UK as well.
What's happening in WH press briefings and invite the press Cabinet meetings is anathema to their journalism

Sure hope CBS can complete their merger at the insignificant cost of a free press

It would have been good if both anchors also quit and walked off at the end.

So, Trump sued CBS and 60 Minutes because they were not “fair to him”. If he is successful in his lawsuit, then every democrat candidate should sue FOX for the same reason. Trump is such a small minded petulant man/child. Does he really think everyone HAS to treat him “fairly”? I mean, REALLY!!!!!

How much hate speech and character attacks has he engaged in via Truth Social and Twitter alike? Who recalls THIS gem? And all because she wouldn't endorse him...

Swift should sue Trump. She’s got enough money to do it.

That’s “resistance?” How?
