60 Minutes Airs Scathing Segment on ‘First Felon in the Oval Office’ Despite Pressure to Avoid Sensitive Stories About Trump

[C_Clayton_Jones]

‘Veteran 60 Minutes anchor Scott Pelley reported on President Donald Trump’s efforts to strong-arm some of the country’s top law firms into doing his bidding on Sunday night’s episode of the embattled CBS newsmagazine. Pelley’s segment pulled no punches in describing Trump’s efforts and reminding viewers that Trump is the “first felon” ever to sit in the Oval Office.

The segment raised eyebrows as it comes amid reporting that Shari Redstone, the head of CBS’s parent company Paramount Global, had pressured the show to delay “sensitive” stories that might anger Trump. Redstone is currently in talks to merge her company with Skydance Media, which will require the Trump administration’s approval. Additionally, Trump is currently suing 60 Minutes for tens of billions of dollars over its pre-election interview with then-Vice President Kamala Harris.’

Trump’s attack of law firms and his attack of the press for reporting facts and the truth about Trump are clear First Amendment violations.

Whining about Trump after the many LAWFARE cases against Trump, and even two assassination attempts is laughable.

The law firms are guilty dumbass.

So it's OK for them to prop up one candidate in America and even selectively edit interviews the candidate did
to make them appear better than what they are?
No, no it's not.

60 Minutes used to be a good show before the Democrats corrupted them. Now they suck balls.

The only part of 60 mins I've seen the last 20 yrs has been what I saw after football and could grab the remote to change the channel.
