Summary
A bombshell from former 60 Minutes correspondent Cecilia Vega. Fired three months ago in a major shake-up, Vega is now speaking out. She alleges that under Bari Weiss's leadership, she was pressured to report on stories that 'never happened.' Vega pointed to a 'new administration' at CBS News, where Paramount installed Weiss as editor-in-chief. This explosive claim raises serious questions about journalistic integrity at the storied newsmagazine.
