60 Minutes Correspondent Bashes New Boss in Scathing, Leaked Memo

Veteran 60 minutes correspondent Sharon Alfonsi wrote a private email to her colleagues about why she believes her segment on deplorable conditions for deported migrants was pulled at the 11th hour by new CBS Editor-In-Chief Bari Weiss. That email has now been made public, and in it, Alfonsi says her story was vetted, promoted and ready for air, when Weiss pulled it for so called “editorial” reasons.  Alfonsi isn’t buying it, saying the network’s decision is a “betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism.”
