BARI'S MAGA BLOODBATH AT CBS: Mass Firings, More To Come [View all]

And now, she's trying to hire Scott Jennings as the evening news anchor? Sure, that'll build credibility!



By Susie Madrak — October 30, 2025

Let's watch this slow-motion horror as Bari Weiss continues the MAGAfication of the once-proud CBS News! Via the Daily Beast:

The new boss of CBS News, anti-woke opinion journalist Bari Weiss, axed a series of its shows Wednesday and fired dozens of staff.

Weiss, who was named editor-in-chief of the network when CBS’s new owner David Ellison bought her Free Press website, told staff it was an “enormously difficult day.” The wider Paramount company was warned by Ellison to expect widespread firings.
