The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" 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.

CBS News: 60 Minutes - Episodes, interviews, profiles, reports and 60 Minutes Overtime

When David Ellison took over CBS and then appointed Bari Weiss as chief news editor, Weiss began interfering in 60 Minutes reporting and fired some of its journalists. It seemed like this pillar of tv journalism had met its demise. I continued to watch it every week nonetheless, and the last two weeks have been pleasantly surprising. 60 Minutes ran a couple of stories each week that were strongly critical of the Trump administration and exposed some of its spokespersons as awful liars.

This week there were stories about people deported to third countries, and about the Trump pressure campaign on Colorado to release Tina Peters from prison.

Last week they told about federal pressure on states regarding voting systems, and about the helium shortage as a result of the Iran war.

Kudos to CBS.
