It was incredible to me that they did reach out to talk to me after wiping all these people out, I mean, within hours.
So we had a baby shower at the house, and we got through the weekend, and I learned that Nick Bilton was going to speak to the 60 Minutes staff on that next Monday morning.
My wife and I had a long planned hiking trip in the Canadian Rockies planned, and I wasn't gonna be able to be at the meeting.
And she and I talked about it, realized that this was an existential moment for 60 Minutes, so we canceled the vacation so I could be there.
And that was the first time that I had an opportunity to meet Nick Bilton.
It wasn't in public.
It was behind closed doors.
I was with my family in a closed room.
None of this was meant to be public.
But Lulu, imagine I'm walking into this room with these people who have devoted their lives to 60 Minutes.
They have not received any kind of explanation.
They are waiting for Barry Weiss to walk in the room in the hope that she's going to explain why this tragedy has occurred and why it was so necessary.
and I'm waiting to see who comes in, and it's Nick Bilton and one of Barry's deputies.
No Barry.
People are a little shocked by this.
As we're standing in there, Nick makes his way to the front of the room and does something absolutely jaw-dropping to me.
He pulls out his phone,
and begins reading a statement off his phone in a room full of 50 heartbroken people.
The callousness, the tone deafness of that, you could hear the groan in the room when that happened.
They'd put out a big spread of bagels like we were all gonna feel better.
