CBS News fires '60 Minutes' blowhard Scott Pelley after he dumps on Bari Weiss

CBS News has dismissed Scott Pelley, a long-time correspondent for "60 Minutes," after he publicly criticized Bari Weiss, a conservative journalist, on social media. Pelley, who has been with CBS News since 1989, was previously removed as anchor of "CBS Evening News" in 2017 amid allegations of a hostile work environment and declining ratings. This move signals CBS's commitment to maintaining a neutral stance amid increasing polarization in media, reflecting a broader trend in journalism to navigate political sensitivities carefully.
