attack on Venezuela to overthrow the government there, that he's engaged in apparently trying to seize Greenland for the United States.
And to then do this fawning segment with effusive praise for Marco Rubio, I thought was just, I mean, he literally says, Don, I salute you or we salute you, Marco Rubio.
Can you imagine if, you know, let's say David Muir did the same segment for AOC and said, we salute you, AOC.
It would be a nonstop segment on Fox News all day.
Donald Trump would say this is evidence of their bias, et cetera, et cetera.
And frankly, they'd have a good argument to make.
I don't understand what Tony is doing saluting Marco Rubio.
Tony DiCoppo is the one saying these words on air, Don.
But the context this is occurring in is, of course, that David Ellison has purchased Paramount and has installed Barry Weiss as editor-in-chief.
And she's the one who's making these editorial decisions over at CBS News.
And so Tony is merely the face of this broader reshaping, I think, of the network.
And I think...
For a lot of reasons, they're going to push this network in far friendlier waters to Donald Trump and his administration, primarily because I think David Ellison, you know, he believes in some of this stuff, but he also wants to get his business deals through Washington, D.C., which Donald Trump.
currently controls.
And so an easy way to do that is to grease the wheels, is to suck up to this administration.
And I think they're doing that through CBS News because Donald Trump doesn't care about Paramount Plus and what's streaming on Paramount Plus or what movies Paramount's going to be releasing soon.
The one asset in the Paramount portfolio that he very much cares about is CBS News.
And they're basically saying, we'll give you CBS News in exchange for you approving some of our other business.
What's remarkable about this, Don, is when we were at CNN, I think the shift was a lot more subtle, right?
It wasn't so overt.
