El Caos en CBS News Complica La Gran Apuesta De Paramount Y Warner Bros.

Weiss’s overhaul of the flagship CBS program has fueled bias claims as Paramount’s owner pursues a Warner Bros. Discovery deal that would add CNN.

  • Paramount's pursuit of WBD faces reputational risk as turmoil at CBS News intensifies, with reports of mass firings at "60 Minutes" weeks before the merger's expected completion.
  • CBS News boss Bari Weiss has fired top correspondents and producers at "60 Minutes" to modernize the program, while critics allege she is tilting coverage to please the Trump administration.
  • Correspondents Lesley Stahl, Bill Whitaker, and Jon Wertheim wrote in a Friday note that they intend to stay at "60 Minutes," echoing Bilton's claim: "The core of '60 Minutes' will remain '60.'"
  • Regulators face a July 7 deadline to authorize the merger, while California Attorney General Rob Bonta leads a group of states preparing an antitrust lawsuit to challenge the acquisition.
  • Raymond James analysts noted that the merger remains likely to close, though they cautioned that the third quarter of 2026 timeline for completion appears aggressive.
