## Resource

Scott Pelley, veteran CBS News anchor, stunned by President Trump’s unexpected jab calling him a “stiff,” reflects on his decades of reporting — from being shot at to desert nights — contrasting them with what he sees as the President’s lack of service. He delivers a blunt warning: democracy dies without journalism. After accusing the new 60 Minutes executive producer of “murdering” the show and lacking qualifications, Pelley was fired — a move he says signals a dangerous editorial shift toward political bias. He’s pleading with Paramount leadership to restore sanity, warning that the network’s credibility is crumbling as respected journalists speak out against political interference. With broadcasts barely making air and inexperienced leadership at the helm, Pelley believes 60 Minutes’ iconic legacy is in crisis — but still salvageable if they return to journalistic integrity.
