CBS has just TERMINATED 60 Minutes anchor Scott Pelley’s contract, “EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY”
Pelley accused Editor-in-chief Bari Weiss of “MURDERING” the show and got into a heated meeting
Executive Producer fired back in a scathing letter: “Your antipathy to the future of the show has come through loud and clear. And I have heard you. I therefore write on behalf of CBS News to inform you that your employment with CBS is terminated for cause effective immediately.”
I read through other articles that have the transcript of what Pelley actually said. It’s hard to fathom how he spoke to his bosses. Talk about a pompous ass. No wonder he got fired.

Pelly is a twit whose bias is so profound, so transparent, it’s a wonder he made it as far as he did. Well, it’s not a wonder, but even the left has its limits, I guess.
Here is the note that accompanied the legal termination letter — note: fired for cause
