Early Thursday morning CBS News head Bari Weiss announced that she will be putting her “Honestly” podcast on “pause” for the foreseeable future.

The announcement comes just after Status reported that her revamped CBS Evening News ratings are in fast decline, dropping below 4 million viewers last Friday while competitor ABC News' "World News Tonight with David Muir" averaged 8.2 million total viewers and NBC News "Nightly News With Tom Llamas" averaged 6.7 million total viewers.

1. And May they Keep "Spiraling"...

Weiss Asked For This.

[Simeon Salus]

2. Weiss's default podcast is "Dis-honestly"

Since she's paused honesty, she can go back to her regular programming, disinformation.

3. Hard to host an honesty podcast when

You're running lies and propaganda 24/7

4. Totally Predictable

People who watched CBS for fact-based reporting weren't going to suddenly jump on board with a clueless Trump-appeaser who was hired to remake it into a clone of Fox Noise. I doubt if she even lasts through the year.

In any case, it's not like the Ellisons give a damn. They themselves just want to keep Trump happy.

5. Unbelievable how far CBS has fallen....and how quickly.

Bari Weiss has helped destroy the once-trusted and respected CBS.

[Grokenstein]

10. "Once-trusted and respected" is why the traitors targeted it.

If this nation survives its own spiraling decline, we have to clean house ASAP.

6. Who wants to watch See BS? n/t

7. MAGAs but they have their regular sources and CBS wont be extreme enough

For MAGA

8. MAGA has Fox, OAN & NewsMax. There's no room for See BS n/t

9. I'm sure the Ellison's accounted for losses as part of the cost of doing "their" business.

The power of influence, was the goal, the bottom line is the short term cost for the long term goal. The assets alone can offset the losses in the news division. Twitter was a much bigger loser for Leon. Weis and the new guy on the evening news will be the sacrificial lambs. They'll get paid and move on.
That's just my uneducated guess.

11. they are DEAD to me

I mean, seriously, WTF, they're sucking up to FASCISM
