BEING IN YOUR TWILIGHT YEARS TENDS TO DO THAT: CBS Is Rethinking Its Life Choices.

Of course, rumors and even accurate reports on ongoing negotiations don’t always pan out, and there’s a lot of ground to cover between telling [Bari] Weiss that she will have a big role at CBS and Weiss actually being able to implement durable changes at the network. Still, we can all enjoy the spectacle while it lasts. CBS News is probably second only to the Times as the oldest media enemy of conservatives, from the McCarthy era and the Tet Offensive to George H. W. Bush’s confronting Dan Rather on air and the 2004 “Rathergate” scandal, when Rather tried to get payback at Bush’s son, all the way up to Donald Trump’s lawsuit against 60 Minutes. And that’s just the abridged version. As Peggy Noonan quipped in 1990 of the long shadow of Edward R. Murrow at CBS News, during her time working for Rather before joining the Reagan White House, “It was Murrow who said, ‘Some stories don’t have two sides.’ At Auschwitz he was right. But the news isn’t always Auschwitz.”

Auschwitz, you say? ‘Free Speech Atty.’ Tries Running After Getting Rekt for Antisemitic Swipe at Bari Weiss Buuut We Got It.
