She now controls one of the most powerful and important news organizations in the United States.

The story of how she got there is the story of the future of the American media.

Unfortunately for all of us, the story is distressingly simple.

Barry Weiss and her outlet, I'm using that in immense quotations again, this is just a substack, was bought out by one Larry Ellison.

Larry Ellison then appointed Weiss to be the ideological hatchet woman,

for his takeover of Paramount, which owns CBS.

There was no secret plan.

There was no weird strategy.

There was no Illuminati cabal behind the scenes.

It didn't require any effort at all.

All you have to do in order to install a right-wing hack as the editor-in-chief of CBS News is buy the company.

The results have been devastating.

I would call what happened resegregation.

There was a large-scale firing of non-white employees.

NBC eliminated the editorial teams for NBC Asian America, NBC Black, NBC Latino, and NBC Out.

NBC Out was the queer one.

They fired Gayle King.

They did some stuff that frankly sounds like a joke.

I'm just going to read this quote from The Root.

And the CBS News Bureau in Johannesburg, South Africa has been shut down with coverage of Africa shifting to London.
