Not only did they pay that pus filled sociopath $16 million dollars, they also have to “release transcripts of ’60 Minutes’ interviews with eligible U.S. presidential candidates after such interviews have aired, subject to redactions as required for legal or national security concerns.”

This was clearly a bribe and CBS has lost all credibility, in my opinion!
