Chapter 2: What recent controversies surround CBS News and its reporting?
CBS News and 60 Minutes are facing scrutiny after the network's management abruptly pulled a piece Sunday night that was reporting on the Trump administration's deportation policies and conditions at a notorious prison in El Salvador. The correspondent on the piece, Sharon Alfonsi, in an email to colleagues called the decision an editorial decision rather than a political one.
NPR's David Fulkenfrick reports.
Chapter 3: How has the Trump administration's policies affected Venezuelan migrants?
The correspondent Sharon Alfonsi and her team interviewed Venezuelan migrants who had been sent by Trump administration to a notorious prison in El Salvador. And they were going to allege on camera that they had been badly abused, in some cases tortured, sexually assaulted by their captors there. This, of course, a prison that the administration had chosen for these detainees to be sent to.
Chapter 4: What international reactions have emerged regarding Trump's envoy appointment for Greenland?
CBS's new editor-in-chief, Barry Weiss, is defending the decision, insisting she says the story was not ready to air. Danish and European officials are outraged that President Trump has appointed Louisiana's Governor Jeff Landry to be the special envoy for Greenland. Landry supports making the semi-autonomous Danish territory part of the U.S. Terry Schultz reports.
The Danish and Greenlandic prime ministers put out a joint statement aimed at Washington, emphasizing national borders and sovereignty are matters of international law, that other countries can't simply be annexed, as President Trump has suggested of Greenland in the past.
Chapter 5: What impact have Israeli demolitions had on Palestinian communities in Jerusalem?
European Commission spokesman Anwar al-Nuni issued a similar response from Brussels.
Preserving the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark, its sovereignty and the inviolability of its borders is essential for the European Union.
Danish Foreign Minister Lars-Luke Rasmussen summoned U.S. Ambassador Ken Howery to issue a formal complaint. The foreign ministers of Finland, Norway and Sweden all expressed strong support for their Nordic neighbor. For NPR News, I'm Terry Schultz in Brussels.
The Palestinian Authority says more than 460 Palestinian structures and buildings have been demolished by Israel in the Jerusalem governorate this year. NPR's Hadiyah Lashashi reports.
The most recent demolition of a residential building in East Jerusalem has left about 100 Palestinians homeless, according to the Palestinian Authority. The Authority's Ministry of Jerusalem says there's been a sharp uptick in these demolitions, calling them forced displacement. It says they are part of a policy to change Jerusalem's demographic to support Jewish settlement expansion.

Chapter 6: What recent developments are there in Arizona's fake elector case?
Israeli authorities say that the homes are, quote, illegal due to a lack of Israeli-issued permits. Rights groups say the Israeli planning and permit system is discriminatory because they limit where and how Palestinians can build in East Jerusalem. Hadil Al-Shalchi, NPR News, Tel Aviv.
At least five people were killed Monday when a small Mexican Navy plane crashed near Galveston, Texas. This is NPR News from Washington. Singer Chris Rhea died Monday after a brief illness. His biggest American hit, Fool If You Think It's Over, peaked to number 12 on the Billboard charts back in 1978. Chris Rhea was age 74.
Legendary entertainer Barry Manilow says he has early-stage lung cancer and will undergo surgery to remove a cancerous spot, he says, on his lung. He will reschedule his January concerts as a result of that surgery. Manilow said he had been recently battling a persistent case of bronchitis, and during an MRI, doctors found a cancerous growth that can be treated with surgery.
Manilow, who has been performing since the late 1960s, is a multiple or Grammy award-winning singer. Arizona's Attorney General Chris Mays' office is dropping charges against one of the state's fake electors. Reporter Wayne Schutzke from station WJZZ has more.
Former U.S. Senate candidate Jim Lehman was one of 11 Arizona Republicans who signed a document falsely claiming President Trump won the state in 2020. A grand jury indicted these fake electors and several allies, including attorney Rudy Giuliani and former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows, on fraud and other felony charges.
A spokesman confirms the state attorney general will drop the charges against Lehman. Lehman's attorney says his client did not sign a plea deal or agree to testify, though he will not object to certain subpoenas for text messages sought by prosecutors. The Arizona case is now in limbo as the state Supreme Court considers an appeal over whether it should be sent back to the grand jury.
