If the ratings had collapsed or there was some journalistic scandal about a story, then okay, we deserve it.
But we had a triumphal year.
So this is incredibly difficult to understand.
Cecilia Vega,
Sharon Alfonsi, our very best correspondence, just summarily fired for no stated reason and without explanation.
This is one-third of our correspondent corps.
So this isn't like they fired our boss, which they did.
they wiped out a large number of people.
One of the things Nick Bilton said in that ill-fated email to the staff was that he was excited to tell, I'm paraphrasing here, he was excited to tell the staff about the new crop of correspondence.
And when I saw that, I thought, okay,
they're gonna fire all of us eventually.
That's the plan.
He put it in writing for all of us to see.
And so that's why I use these, admittedly for a journalist, hyperbolic terms.
They capture the scale of what happened.
Oh, gosh, furthest thing from my mind.
It hadn't occurred to me.
The president of CBS News, Tom Sabrowski, sent me a note and said, can you come by and talk to us?
And I said, absolutely.
I scheduled about an hour on my calendar for the meeting.
