CBS and its parent company Paramount were recently acquired by the family of Larry Ellison — the third-richest person on Earth and a major Trump donor.
The family is now attempting a hostile takeover of Warner Bros/Discovery, which would eventually require Trump's approval.
Last night, to further pacify Trump, CBS News removed a segment from “60 Minutes” — just three hours before the broadcast — featuring stories of Venezuelan men deported by the Trump administration to what the program called a “brutal” prison in El Salvador. Bari Weiss, the new editor-in-chief of CBS News, had demanded changes to the segment.
This is why you always follow the money — and why you should be alarmed by billionaire control of the media.
