From The New York Times:
Head of CBS News to Depart Amid Tensions With Trump
Wendy McMahon, the president of CBS News and Stations, had allied herself with Bill Owens, the “60 Minutes” executive producer who recently resigned.
CBS News faced another shock wave on Monday after its president, Wendy McMahon, abruptly said that she would exit her post, the latest development in an ongoing showdown between the news division and President Trump.
Ms. McMahon, whose full title was president of CBS News and Stations, said in a memo that “it’s become clear the company and I do not agree on the path forward.”
Tensions between Ms. McMahon and CBS’s parent company, Paramount, have simmered for months, a period that Ms. McMahon described in her memo as “challenging.”
Paramount is in talks to settle a $20 billion lawsuit brought by Mr. Trump that accused “60 Minutes” of deceptively editing an interview last year with his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris. Many legal experts have called the suit baseless, but Paramount’s controlling shareholder, Shari Redstone, has said she favors settling the case. She is seeking the Trump administration’s approval for a multibillion-dollar sale of her company to a Hollywood studio, Skydance...

The MSM is dead. It was suicide.
It is things like this that as a Veteran who served and fought in war to defend our countries freedoms and interests. Find so many fellow Americans not only working to destroy America but these protected by constitution entities of free speech. Have supported and propagandized and used their large media news presence to support not only Trump for the tax cuts for their owners but the entire GOP that brought them a SCOTUS majority that is now willing to strip them of that constitutional free speech protection from the very government they used to proclaim should not actively disembowel that status but the very justices now step on these free speech proteted entities.
They can say goodbye to to there consumers and their business.
It is as the same big wall street banks that supported and funded GOP/GW Bush to deregulate their financial business. Then ran their businesses into collapse requiring the people to bail them out with their taxes to remain in business.
These are the same that funded and supported the GOP/ Trump economic chaos on us for government to borrow to pau out tax cuts to the wealthy .
As the press goes to Jamie Dimond who took a bail out then. Is still in business and he uses it to steal money from government at our expense.
These are the financial loser wizards the press goes to to give us a peaceful feeling economically for being fleeced.
It makes this veteran reflect on defending this nation and its people as a big mistake. Would I serve today under this GOP/ Don God leadership? The answer is NO!
Sheezus! What a bunch of cowards. There's a special place in hell for CBS and Paramount.
John Oliver explained this situation pretty well last night.
