Summary
60 Minutes plans to enrage Donald Trump Sunday with an episode bashing his intimidation efforts—despite being in a legal battle with the president themselves.
“Now in the White House, Trump is using executive orders to target some of the biggest law firms in the country that he accuses of ‘weaponizing’ the justice system against him.”
The drama between Donald Trump and CBS has heated up in recent weeks after the show’s executive producer, Bill Owens, abruptly quit after 37 years, accusing CBS executives of interfering with the program and pandering to Trump amid his $20 billion lawsuit.
CBS and Trump’s settlement discussions have taken place as Paramount Global seeks the president’s approval of its merger with Skydance, an American media production company.
People know what 60 Minutes is.
They don’t know what Skydance is, and definitely don’t care about it (that’s not necessarily ‘good’).
They sort of know what Paramount is, from movie title sequences, but they don’t care about it more than any other movie production company. (Again that’s not necessarily ‘good.’)
Going public like this is a great answer to Trump’s bullying.
