CBS News Pulls Peter Attia '60 Minutes' Segment After Epstein Revelations

Source: Deadline

CBS News has pulled a 60 Minutes segment by physician and longevity researcher Peter Attia after revelations that his name appears in more than 1,700 documents in the latest release of the Epstein files.

The segment, which first aired in October, was to be included in a rerun airing Sunday against the Super Bowl. The Attia segment will be replaced with another piece.

Attia was named as a CBS News contributor, along with 18 others, just last week as part of Bari Weiss’ new strategy for the news division.

The documents in which Attia was named included direct correspondence in the mid-2010s between himself and disgraced financier Epstein, who, by that time, had already pleaded guilty to prostitution charges. Epstein was later charged with trafficking underage girls for sex.

Turns out Bari Weiss isn't so wise.

Reporting on ICE victims .

Read this about Epstein’s contacts on top of Lawrence’s show really makes me wonder if there is any good anywhere any longer.

He kind of fits the QAnon fantasies about med beds and extending life expectancy. [I follow a former high school classmate on Facebook for shits and giggles. She is a psychologist and full blown QAnon freak.] Constant discussion of adenochrome, etc. and extending the usual life span.

There's nothing legitimate to connect Attia to QAnon that I know of. But he always just appeared "weird" in interviews that I came across. When Trump got that mysterious MRI, I thought about Attia and his quest to extend lifespan. Attia advises his patients to get an MRI yearly. This was discussed in an interview he did for 60 Minutes with Nora O'Donnell.

Again - just random thoughts.

How many election cycles will have to be won by the dems to repair the enormous damage done by trump so far? When he leaves the treasury will be broke. Him filing lawsuits and setting his own settlements. WTF?

Every van in the 60s and 70s was a “camper van” if you know what I mean. 😉
