I'm 100% sure what the tactic was here--"If you leave, think of all the people without your financial resources we're immediately going to fire." It's ugly, and not a surprise. I know everyone here will call these three cowards, but the contempt dripping from this statement should not be overlooked.

So Bari Weiss's big win this week is a statement in which the three remaining 60 Minutes correspondents issue a statement saying they'll stay while excoriating the CBS newsroom she runs as a "shabby" "indecent" "dictatorship." Proud moment for all!
Many of you have raised questions about how smoothly things are or are not proceeding for the "new Mark Harris" since 9 p.m. last night. I won't lie to you; since that time, there have been some bumps and setbacks on my journey. Nothing unusual there. I ask for grace. No, I demand it.
In light of some texts from haters that may come out, let me amend that to 9 p.m. yesterday.
I would like it known that everything I did wrong from birth until 3 p.m. yesterday should be classified as part of my personal growth journey and can never be held against me. I was a different person.
I mean, if you want to make the case that swaggering alpha bros should be the future of the Democratic Party, have at it. But before you do that, when a guy has a Nazi tattoo, maybe it would be a good idea to vet him all the way back to, say, the second trimester.
Quick reminder: every Senate race is of national importance, because every Senate vote affects everyone. So, yes, we all get to weigh in on the currently unfolding shitshow, and on the self-styled future-of-the-Democratic-party casting directors whose bluster helped made it happen.
This campaign feels like it's at a point when what happens next, and how it happens, is going to have to be privately and very forcefully explained to Platner.
So apparently, there is a mechanism by which the Maine Democratic Party can replace a nominated candidate if he voluntarily drops out. Seems like information worth having. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/04/u...
Wait wait wait. Nick Bilton, the sleazebag who is being paid $2.5 million to zombify 60 Minutes, also wrote a Scorsese project to which Leonardo DiCaprio, Emily Blunt, and Dwayne Johnson are attached? Very very hard no to this.
Sounds like the table they were at was a two-top.
For Manhattan residents: Perhaps, like me, you just got a particularly ugly mailer about Congressional candidate Alex Bores and Palantir, essentially accusing him of being a sexual harasser. Fine print: The mailer was paid for by "ThinkBigPAC," a superPAC that's funding pro-AI Democratic candidates.
That doesn't make it easier, though. The people I know who still work in their mid-80s feel they will die if they stop. It's a rough thing psychologically.
I know so many journalists who have, at one point or another, said to themselves, "I can keep doing my own job with integrity despite the misdeeds of the company I work for." And sometimes it's true. But you have to be tough-minded enough to know when it becomes a lie.

Pelley: "New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story...The collapse of values at the top has become untenable...I pray for a day when sanity, competence, and courage return."
Scott Pelley has provided @status.news a statement blasting current CBS News management and even accusing them of having tried (and failed) to "inject falsehoods and bias" into his stories. www.status.news/p/scott-pell...
As far as I can tell, there are now just three correspondents left on 60 Minutes (down from seven). The best-known of them, Lesley Stahl, is 84. If I were she, I might consider ending my time there with an act of principle rather than with an accommodation to a corrupt regime.
Scott Pelley will be fine. And now everyone in journalism knows exactly who, and what, Nick Bilton is. I don't really believe many of these people will ever face what they deserve, but I deeply believe in the next best thing: Long memories.
You....might be surprised.

"They’re going to have to fire him. No amount of HR speak will have him retract what he said," one CBS staffer just told me, adding: "For an anti-woke crusader, this is pretty woke of [Bari] to accuse Pelley of after firing the entire leadership of his show and two correspondent colleagues."
