Summary
60 Minutes plans to enrage Donald Trump Sunday with an episode bashing his intimidation efforts—despite being in a legal battle with the president themselves.
“Now in the White House, Trump is using executive orders to target some of the biggest law firms in the country that he accuses of ‘weaponizing’ the justice system against him.”
The drama between Donald Trump and CBS has heated up in recent weeks after the show’s executive producer, Bill Owens, abruptly quit after 37 years, accusing CBS executives of interfering with the program and pandering to Trump amid his $20 billion lawsuit.
CBS and Trump’s settlement discussions have taken place as Paramount Global seeks the president’s approval of its merger with Skydance, an American media production company.
Im waiting for the V for Vendetta moment where a media personality gets arrested by a swarm of feds for making fun of dear leader
Drumple Thin-Skin has a meltdown over everything. This is like saying tomorrow is going to happen.
Weak. And old.
Love “Drumple Thin-Skin,” so I’ll be stealing that
It’s a popular one. I use Trumplethinskin myself but with that spelling instead.
And it’s not available 24/7 online… why? I’d love to see the click counter on that bad boy.
Edit: I thought this was the other interview. Okay, make 'em both available. The ad revenue alone will be tremendous.
Definitely going to watch that episode Sunday, and I’ll be rooting for cholesterol.
I want suffering. I’m done being the bigger person because the high road only takes you off a cliff. Let me see their face when it happens please.
‘weaponizing’ the justice system against him.”
It’s always projection with him.
With Republicans in general, I think. It seems to be their best attempt at misdirection, and I think it works to keep their target audience from paying attention to their least savory activities.
Everyone says it’s projection but it never is.
They genuinely think it’s weaponised because they lose in court and think they shouldn’t have. They think brown people are inferior so DEI means they’re undeserving… It’s not projection. It’s that they think all the good and normal things we do are an attack because where they come from their views are normal and they think they’re good people so any resistance means the courts are being weaponised and they’re under attack
“Ur gonna be so mad U big meanie lmao ur be like oh no I’m so angry lol we gonna get u so hard ur gonna be soooo madddddsd lmao.”
When did journalism turn into Roblox chat?
This reminds me when big tobacco tried to muzzle them. It almost succeeded, and 60 mins, in the end, did pull their punch.
So now we are reporting about how Donald Trump is going to feel about an upcoming report?
Fuck’s sake…
It also doesn’t make sense. To make Trump angry all you need to do is tell the truth. Just state facts and he’ll be tweeting up shitstorm at 3am.
That’s probably exactly what they’re going to do
It’s all part of the facade at this point. America is already a failed state to all that aren’t being brainwashed by it.
Sorry, CBS executives have bent the knee to the traitors, there is no way they will allow anything embarrassing on the air. Daily Beast is delusional and will say anything to get the clicks of Americans who have lost faith in their country.
This is the KGB handbook in effect.
Spend enough time amplifying the loudest, worst takes on both sides of any and every social and political issue, and eventually nobody knows what’s real, everyone is exhausted with the contention, and people just tune out and default to believing whatever the state tells them is real, because the alternative is time-consuming research, and people rarely read news past the headlines.
We’ve been sabotaged and have the receipts, yet I still get angry leftists and liberals scolding me that this is conspiratorial nonsense, and it’s “problematic” to try to pin all our social issues on Russia.
And they’re right, it’s not just Russia. It was also North Korea, Iran, China, and probably a thousand different smaller groups for assorted agendas.
But nobody wants to admit how vulnerable they are not just to misinformation, but the ancillary effects of a misinformation climate.
Good to see from 60 Minutes.
I won’t hold my breath. CBS did a piece a few months ago on the Israeli settlements that was entirely one-sided: https://youtu.be/dcyLW5gUEtY
I’ll buy him a case of Depends.
Paramount’s CEO kills the segment in 3…2…1…
Yep they shouldn’t have talked about it, just air it.
Nah this is 60 minutes putting pressure on their new handlers to not squash the segment. Now everyone knows it’s coming, and if it doesn’t air people will notice. I think it’s a wise move.
You mean 60m is going to do their job?
Oh wow they’re following popular opinion
My guess is that their PR team is trying to drum up extra viewership after a Chief Producer and key staff members recently quit.
