YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

CBS News pulled an investigative report on 60 Minutes just a day before it was set to air. It promised a look at allegations of abuse and torture suffered by men deported by the Trump administration and sent to a prison in El Salvador. Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss said the segment would eventually run, but it needed comment from the administration. William Brangham discussed more with Brian Stelter.
