The only things I watch on CBS are Colbert and sports. They are Faux Lite.

I go to bed too early to watch when it airs. About six weeks ago, my cable carrier (Xfinity) began displaying a message that it wasn't carrying CBS anymore because the Scripps company wanted too much in contract negotiations. I still don''t have CBS.

is doing what she was hired to do.

If I were her, I'd quit before I'd lend my name and reputation to ghetto journalism.

for C BS.

once your mythic system goes belly-up!

That's the point of having separation of Church (fantasy) and State (reality). Thank you for your attention to this matter.

and with good reason.

Not any more. (Sigh…)

True, honest, reliable news. Now CBS is just a mouthpiece for the rabid right. Wow, how the mighty have fallen.

It's seared into my memory. Wow. To have presidents like JFK again and news anchors like Walter Cronkite again...

This is Colbert's last month.

I will not be watching any replacement shows.

BTW, if Paramount and WB Discovery are broken up at a later date, Ellison will make a huge profit.

...I didn't see the episode trying to make these guys look decent or misunderstood. I saw them being presented as opportunists who use natural disasters as photo ops and recruitment opportunities while trying to soften their image by posting on social media about the "help" they offer only to the affected white population. I think the episode could and should have been longer and dived a bit deeper but I didn't see it as sane-washing these guys. I think it's good that people know that this is going on.

gave them oxygen, is reason enough to question the integrity of the story. I saw the first five minutes then changed channels. Leslie Stahl failed to challenge the bastard leader of the cult on a several occasions. The true mission of these "fine citizens" was not thoroughly examined or exposed. Some might call it a fair and balanced story. I call it an attempt to normalize white Christian nationalists.

You say that you changed the channel after 5 minutes, so I don't know how you could assess what Stahl did or didn't do. As I said, I think that the segment could have been more in depth, but I actually watched the whole thing and I didn't see it as simply giving these guys airtime or oxygen but giving us INFORMATION, even if that information comes from a network that we don't like.

by interviewing Charlie Manson and allowing him to drone on about the good work they do? Did CBS expose The People's Temple in Jonestown, Guyana by interviewing Jim Jones as he was innocently working out?

I don't care what the scum of the Earth think about themselves.

I understand what you're saying. Expose the evil from within the evil. But, we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one. It's all good. The cool thing about the DU is the diversity of opinions. It's how we learn.

It was made quite clear that these guys are not doing what they do out of altruism or a simple desire to do good works. It was also reported that their presence in these disaster areas hamper efforts by local authorities and also that they spread conspiracy theories and anti-government propaganda. There was one particular guy that they focused on who was quite open about his white supremacist leanings and whom the segment informed us had not even gone to any of the affected areas to offer any help. He's basically just a white supremacist influencer. You probably won't watch the segment but I think you should.

as usual. Her job is to expose and question, NOT to express her personal opinion.

She was spot on, as always. Take away from it what you want.

forearmed IMO. I want to know what they're doing, she exposed them, didn't give support to them.

After watching it, I’m glad it was aired, because it exposed these white supremacists for who they are: they exploit people in a crisis situation to offer “assistance” at a price. But they only offer to help white folks, and it has to be videotaped.

Nazis don't deserve a platform!

13:44 min.

Along with everything else on CBS.

What did folks not get about- Everything Trump touches dies?
