In an extraordinary on-air criticism, one of the top journalists of “60 minutes” criticized the main organization of the program directly at the final moments of CBS Telecast on Sunday night, Bill Oven, the program’s executive creator Bill Ovens announced his first phase of resignation.
“Paramount began to oversee our content in new ways,” Scott Pelie told the audience. “None of our stories were blocked, but Bill felt that he had lost the freedom needed for honest journalism.”
A spokesperson of the paramount had no immediate comment and had earlier refused to comment on the departure of Mr. Oven.
Mr. Ovens shocked the show staff on Tuesday when he said that he would leave the most rated program on television news about the CBS corporate parents’ paramount, “It is clear that the company is completed with me.”
Mr Oven’s comments were widely published in the press last week. The decision to repeat these allegations on the show may be the first time the audience will face “60 minutes” and serious excitement among its corporate principals.
Shari Redstone, a shareholder controller of the paramount, has achieved approval for the sale of millions of billions of dollars from the Trump administration, in a studio directed by Tech Bilionaire Larry Ellison.
President Trump sued CBS last year, in a case of “605 minutes interview” with Democratic President Kamala Harris, the Democratic President of 2021, in a case that Mr Trump said that the camouflage was edited. Mrs. Redstone has expressed his desire to settle Mr Trump’s case, though legal experts have called the case far -reaching.
In his comments on Sunday night’s telecast, Mr. Pelie presented the decision to resign as “60 minutes” from further intervention of Mr. Oven.
Mr. Pelly told the audience of the show that started campaigning in 6688, “He did this for us and for you.
After the “605 minute” in January about the war between Israel and Hamas, Mrs. Redstone complained to CBS executives what he considered the wrong slant of this category. A day later, CBS appointed a senior producer in a new role associated with journalism standards. He reviewed some “60 minutes” categories considered to be sensitive.
Representatives of Mr Trump and Paramount are involved in the disposal discussion and the mediation is expected to begin this week.
The loneliness of Mr. Pelie on Sunday night was “60 minutes” and its corporate principal encouraged the moment before the public disagreement.
In a closing note to the audience in the 5th, the correspondent told Mike Wallace Air that the program had not chosen an interview with former tobacco industry executive because the directors of CBS News were given legal pressure. “60 minutes” finally aired the interview, and the episode was later dramatic in “The Insider”, a film starring Loyl Bergman starring Al Pachino in the 5th as a “60 minute” producer.
There is also a category in the “60 minute” episode of Sunday, which examines the decision to reduce financing at the National Health Institutes of the Trump administration, with an interview with a former manager who expressed his concerns about the adverse effects on Americans’ health.
