Boycott CBS: Cheeto Owns It As A Propaganda Channel

After Cheeto won a bogus lawsuit…essentially CBS bent the knee to the pathological liar….against the once longstanding and revered 60 Minutes program it’s been downhill for the network since Now CBS has a new billionaire owner Larry Ellison and kiss ass to the Der Fuhrer and Bari Weiss a Nazi in her own right having sold a right wing news site to CBS/Paramount Plus for $150M

Enter Norah O’Donnell a political commentator who wants a cushy evening job on the network On last night’s 60 Minutes episode she gives the pathological liar Cheeto room to spare in his rantings about all kinds of BS not worth repeating Softball questions without challenge

So find your news somewhere else CBS has become the new Fox on the propaganda block This is how billionaires like Ellison….also new owner of Tik Tok…become prominent in the political scene much like the Rupert Murdochs of old But billionaires become highly dangerous when they begin to shape the political narrative of the American electorate particularly when Der Fuhrer gets to set his own reality by erasing his malevolent past No thanks CBS I’ll go elsewhere!!!

I haven’t watched CBS since the sale to the Ellisons. I miss the Sunday morning show and 60 Minutes but will never watch again.

The only CBS I watch is if it is a sporting event I really want to see and can't get elsewhere. So sad to see such formerly great shows stolen into orbit of the tangerine criminal in the White House.

I stopped watching CBS period let alone this MAGA-fied Sixty Minutes. Please vote Blue in November. Maybe we can turn back all these horrible changes to this country!

Thank you for this piece. I can’t stop my friend of twenty six years, sixty minutes was murdered by Beri Wei’s

I’m watching it precisely because a journalist is trying to cancel it based on a caricature of Bari Weiss. I’d rather think for myself, thank you.

I no longer watch 60 minutes or Sunday Morning 😢 so sad it came to this

Thank you for this piece. I have been a faithful watcher of 60 minutes since their days of knocking on a front door and sticking a camera in somebody's face. Then Mike Wallace would ask some hard hitting questions, and on to the next segment. I will never watch it again.

Oh I stopped watching the day they hired her. But do average Americans know what she’s doing?

Bury Weiss is not an honest broker of facts and objective reality. She buries truth and pushes Reich wing propaganda. It's not a debate, it's not a both-sides B.S. situation, she's objectively promoting lies and hiding the truth.

How do we register the protest w/o being part of Nelson ratings?

That whole Nielsen thing is crap these days. Unless you're still watching over the air. Trust me, they know what you're watching.

P.S./Edit: Even if you *are* watching over the air - if you're using a "smart" TV, they know what you're watching as long as your TV is connected to the internet.

All the "news" media is complicit. Trump's Ireland visit we hear how he was so well recieved in a golf club... no mention of the 10,000 plus people who protested in Dublin ALONE or the thousands more throughout Ireland.

To give this context, Ireland only has about 7 million people total... the US has 341 million. So comparable to over 1 million people protesting here against a visiting foreign dignitary.

And we get crickets from our supposed "free press"

I've been boycotting all Ellison endeavors and anything that propagandist heifer is even marginally attached to.

Have been boycotting from Day One, as so many others have and will. It's rare that CBS is on at all... very, very rare.

I won't even watch my "hometown" NFL team anymore because they're carried on the CBS affiliate (and that goes for last year as well - they made it well into the playoffs and I didn't watch a single game). I'm giving up things and making sacrifices because we are not in normal times anymore, and I'm not going back.
