60 MAGA Minutes [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2025-04-29
Bill Owens, the Executive Producer of “60 Minutes”, resigned in protest after CBS/Paramount instructed him to cave in to pressure from Donald Trump to tailor the TV newsmagazine’s reporting more to the felonious President’s liking. Presumably, CBS/Paramount will find a new Executive Producer who doesn’t care about journalistic integrity.
See this recent Daily Kos article for details.
If enough media companies cave into the tyrant’s demands, the fourth estate will no longer function as a watchdog against government corruption. Government control of the news media is one of the hallmarks of a totalitarian regime. If you’re thinking “It can’t happen here”, wake up. It already is happening here!
I for one am very tick-tick-tick-ticked off about this.
