The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Fired ‘60 Minutes’ Correspondent Says She Was Pushed to Report on Events ‘That Never Happened’ Under Bari Weiss’ Leadership at CBS News

Vega said that in her coverage following the fatal shootings in January 2026 of Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minnesota, she was encouraged by CBS News executives to include video of protesters assaulting people they believed were undercover ICE agents. According to Vega, her team searched for evidence of that — but found "no credible examples" of such incidents.

In addition, Vega said she was asked to include an excerpt from Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey's comments at a press conference that he wanted the police to fight ICE agents enforcing immigration policies. According to Vega, her team watched "every frame" of the footage and did not find the moment in question. "That never happened," Vega said. "We could not find any instance of the mayor saying something like that."
