The Murder Of 60 Minutes

Tusday, June 2nd, 2026 

My Dear America:

Although I fully intended to write about something else entirely today, I just watched several Journalists on the Deadline White House Show on MSNOW discussing an incredible story that one of the Journalists had discovered regarding the CBS Television News Program,60 Minutes.  The Journalist whose First Name is Oliver.  I can't recall his last name, seems to have lucked into one of the most disturbing Journalistic scoops of all time.  

Oliver somehow got hold of a tape made inside a meeting of some CBS News Executives and some members of the 60 Minutes Staff. Former CBS News Anchor and long time "60 Minutes" Correspondent, Scott Pelley was quoted in the meeting as not only questioning the firings of several highly respected Staff Members of 60 minutes and the failure to renew the contracts of Correspondents Sharyn Alfonsi and Cecilia Vega but Pelley clearly called into question the News Qualifications of his new bosses, Including CBS News Dictator, Bari Weiss.

All of the Journalists on the Deadline White House Program were in agreement  that this story was extremely explosive stuff. What is certainly clear is that although CBS Bigwigs are certainly at fault here, messing with the Number One Television News Magazine can also be laid at the feet of President Donald Trump, who has made it clear over the past years that in addition to Trump not liking being laughed at, he also doesn't much appreciate the truth being told about him. 

It will be a miracle if Scott Pelley is not the next Victim of the CBS News Purge by CBS News Executive Bari Weiss.  If he goes, however,  He will go into that CBS News Good Night with his balls intact.  Pelley was quoted in the CBS Meeting as questioning the News Credentials of not only Bari Weiss but of his other new news  bosses.   Scott Pelley termed what is going on at CBS News and particularly at 60 minutes as "Murder"

As was in the case with "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert", 60 Minutes was a ratings success. The show has existed for half a Century on CBS and throughout its existence it has always been a ratings success.  

What is going on here?  Why is CBS "Murdering" its most successful shows?

The reason is fairly simple actually.  CBS Owners are looking to make a Merger deal with Warner Brothers.  Donald Trump has made it clear to CBS Owners that if they want their merger they need to do some things for Donald Trump.  They have already done one important thing for Trump.  They have killed The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, a consistent ratings winner hosted by a Comedy Host who pulled no punches when it came to Donald Trump.  Despite the show's obvious Popularity CBS chose to shut it down because that's what Trump demanded.  

We are increasingly living through a nightmare of epic proportions in which what is happening at CBS is indicative of what is happening throughout our country.  Donald Trump is exercising his authority and I am afraid that the worst is yet to come.

Yes, there is some hope on the horizon.  Except for the Supreme Court, American Judges seem to be trying their best to prevent America from becoming a Third World dictatorship.  Average Americans also seem to be recognizing that they still have some power and are not afraid to use it.  

There is no doubt that America is sinking into quicksand and sinking fast.  

The Mid Terms are fast approaching and we hopefully have a shot to turn things around.  But Americans need to recognize that we are running out of time and energy.

Yes, Trump's name is coming off the KENNEDY CENTER but he is still in the White House where he is making it look more like a Junkyard every day.  The East Wing is gone and they are putting up an Ultimate Fighting Ring.

Good God.  What did we ever do to deserve this?

Bravo Scott Pelley.  I hope you can keep your job but regardless whether you do or don't you can still keep your Self Respect.  And regardless of what happens to you, you have shown Americans that there are still American Heroes out here willing to speak the truth to power.  I just hope we still have some Americans who are willing to stand up with you against the madness of King Donald and his Disgusting Minions at CBS and Elsewhere. 

Sincerely Yours

Jerry Gallagher
