The Daily · Scott Pelley on His Firing and the ‘Massacre’ at ’60 Minutes’ · 7 Jun 2026 podcast

I am not emotional about this because I have lost this job.

I've done it for a long time.

I've had the greatest experiences.

But the people I leave behind, treated in this way,

That breaks my heart.

And it's going to take me a long time to get over it, to be perfectly honest.

Too old.

Of course, we have to reach out to a younger and younger audience.

But their argument about joining the internet age is just disingenuous.

It's almost as if Barry Weiss and Nick Bilton were sealed in a time capsule in 1990, and it just cracked open.

They've just discovered the internet, and they're running around telling everybody how important it is.

At CBS News, yeah, join the fight.

We started our first 60 Minutes online show, 60 Minutes Overtime, in 2010.

I shoot TikTok verticals, or I used to shoot TikTok verticals on every assignment.

I shot material for Overtime on every assignment.

We're there, we're everywhere.

My point is that 60 Minutes is constantly changing, constantly innovating.

So I just find the charge that we at 60 Minutes were frozen in amber in 1968 and nothing's ever changed since then, I find that absolutely absurd and the kind of argument that would be made by people who just don't know what we are.

At last.

Same reason I was staying.
