CBS pulled its “60 Minutes” segment on El Salvador’s CECOT prison just hours before airtime.

CBS says it’ll air “Inside CECOT” later. But you don’t have to wait for their story.

60 Minutes was weekly viewing in my house as a kid. (Just one TV, watching was communal.)
I recognized early on that one of their go-to moves was to assemble a story so damning that the target would absolutely not agree to on-camera comment and then to draw damning inferences from that.
Bari Weiss this morning on the 60 Minutes segment: "We need to be able to get the principals on the record and on camera."

Of course, most journalists know that oftentimes people who are the subject of negative reporting don't want to speak on camera or on the record.

Bari Weiss speaks about wanting to have "contentious disagreements" on news stories

But Sharyn Alfonsi said that when she found out Weiss was killing the 60 Minutes story about CECOT, Weiss refused to discuss it

That's not honest journalism

It's catering to a political agenda

The MAGA agenda
