They had you literally cover up a murder (by the state), and the best you can do is talk about it five months after the fact when you've already been fired (and now it could be painted as retaliation for the firing, BTW)? Brave. Reaaaaaaaaaal fucking brave.
pretty hilarious that this himbo takes umbrage to these idiots being in charge when his last boss was shari redstone. he wants 60 minutes to ask the hard questions like "how brave are our troops?" and "do i have havana syndrome?" lol
imo it makes total sense. the guy you want doing any particular job that's editorially sensitive for the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and their global hegemonic death state is going to be the highest skilled guy that is a true believer. shari redstone, clearly more interested in the more tactful defense of liberal fascism. the ellisons need a guy that is beyond that pale, a trump guy. they needed bari weiss, and pelley is a true believer in being a good liberal defender of the establishment. so he has to go. that the line pelley believes in doesn't exist is almost immaterial to the considerations.
It’s fine and good if the imperial arm is committing atrocities, as long as it’s punching outwards.
“Of course we have to reach out to a younger and younger audience, but their argument about joining the internet age is just disingenuous,” Pelley said. “It’s almost as if Bari Weiss and Nick Bilton were sealed in a time capsule in 1990, and it just cracked open. They’ve just discovered the internet, and they’re running around telling everybody how important it is.”
lmao, workers who have been swallowing the boss' bullshit for too long have the best lines tee'd up.
