- Summary: «This isn’t even the first incident of blatant censorship at CBS this year. A month ago, after the shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, CBS’s head of news, Bari Weiss, published a story parroting the administration’s lies, despite major dissent from journalists in the newsroom. [..] When that happened, I said we weren’t quite at blunt force media censorship. That this was an insidious quid pro quo. CBS installs Bari Weiss as a mouthpiece of the state in exchange for favors. [..] We’re well beyond that now. You have FCC chair Brendan Carr siccing CBS lawyers on a late night host telling him exactly what he can and can’t say.»
