CBS News insiders fear Bari Weiss will soon enact ‘massive changes’ to 60 Minutes
With layoffs widely expected and editorial tensions deepening, correspondents await a post-season shakeup At a time when viewers are fleeing traditional television shows, the CBS Sunday newsmagazine 60 Minutes remains in a class of its own. The 12 April episode, which featured Pope Leo and a story on great white sharks, drew an astounding 10.1 million total viewers. The show is trending as the most-watched news program for the current broadcast season. So, as the saying goes, if it ain’t broke, why fix it? That’s what some CBS News employees and veterans are wondering, amid persistent rumors that the show’s 59th season will look very different than the 58th, which ends on 17 May. Continue reading...

And that really motivated me to try to transform outcomes for other people out there.” Reed Jobs is talking about the death of his father, the Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, to a rare form of pancreatic cancer in 2011 at the age of 56, the experience that underlines his mission to make cancer a non-lethal, treatable disease.

Marc Elias absolutely nails it: our democracy was already under strain, then trump poured gasoline on it and the Roberts Court started outlawing the fire department.

The GOP lit the match. The Supreme Court banned the fire department
The foundation of our democracy is burning to the ground. It did not begin with Donald Trump, but he stoked the flames. The conservative Roberts Court did not light the match, but it has repeatedly declared fire hydrants, sprinklers and smoke detectors illegal.
