YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe clip walks through how Scott Pelley, one of the faces of 60 Minutes since the 1990s, went from making millions a year to getting bounced overnight after challenging the new leadership’s vision for the show. CBS’ new regime under Bari Weiss and Nick Bilton is overhauling the top‑rated news magazine, and when Pelley said in a staff meeting that Weiss “does not love this place” and “was brought in to kill it,” CBS responded with a letter firing him on the spot.
