60 Minutes

A look through MRC’s archives shows CBS has a long history of using dishonest techniques to interfere with the election of conservative candidates. 

CNN’s Brian Stelter touted that CBS lawyers sent a “blunt letter” on Wednesday to Trump’s legal counsel, refusing to bend to public demands for the release of a full transcript of its sneakily edited Kamala Harris interview with Bill Whitaker on 60 Minutes.

On Sunday night, the the 60 Minutes team at CBS News put out a statement of self-defense about their sneaky or sleazy editing of their Kamala Harris interview special. The word salad aired in a Face The Nation promo didn’t match the more coherent answer that aired the next night.

CBS News put out a statement of self-defense on Sunday night about the obvious differences in editing of their Kamala Harris interview. The word salad aired in a Face The Nation promo didn’t match the shorter, more coherent answer that aired the next night on a 60 Minutes special. They still refuse to release a transcript. 

It took two and one-half months for Kamala Harris to agree to an interview with a national journalist. She was interviewed on "60 Minutes" by Bill Whitaker, but her answers are not likely to help her with the few voters who say they are still “undecided.” Asked by Whitaker to explain her economic plan and how it would be paid for, Harris’ response bordered on the meaningless: “My plan is about…

FoxNews.com reported that CBS aired two different answers to the same question on Israel in its 60 Minutes interview with Vice President Kamala Harris. First they aired a word-salad answer on Sunday’s Face the Nation. But when the interview aired on Monday night, the answer was entirely different.

After Vice President Kamala Harris fumbled away friendly interviews with the likes of Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy, CBS’s 60 Minutes, and ABC’s The View in the past week, Harris went on SiriusXM for perhaps the friendliest and most Notable Quotable-worth interview she’ll ever face with former shock jock, Howard Stern. For someone who made his living on indecency (and having certain guests ride…

The 60 Minutes interview was supposed to be a cornerstone of Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’s much-ballyhooed “Media Blitz”, featuring such tough interviews as The View, Howard Stern, Stephen Colbert, and the Call Her Daddy podcast. Instead, it may have turned out to be a millstone.

Democratic presidential nominees have never had a problem finding friendly journalists who will toss easy softballs, inviting the nominee to bash their Republican opponent while showcasing their own warm wonderfulness.

CBS’s Cecilia Vega recently traveled to Texas to interview Gov. Greg Abbott for a 60 Minutes profile on the state’s fight with the federal government over border enforcement. Vega immediately reached for the most hysterical explanation she could think of, asking Abbott if the dispute was about secession.

It’s hard to watch the incessant gavel-to-gavel coverage of the Donald Trump trial in Manhattan without feeling like you’re traveling in a time warp back to 2016. We’re back reliving the “Access Hollywood” tape and talk of how Trump would have never been elected except porn star Stormy Daniels accepted a six-figure check to keep quiet.

During an otherwise fawning interview on CBS for 60 Minutes, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) was sharply questioned for his refusal to be overtly critical of Israel over their conduct of the war against Hamas in the aftermath of the medieval and horrific attack of October 7th.

Syndicated radio host Dan Bongino scorched 60 Minutes for its latest hot take on “misinformation” before the 2024 election and pointed out that the network was not exactly reputed for being truthful.

On Sunday night, the hatchet-job specialists at 60 Minutes were back on the attack against conservatives. It was a 13-minute segment provocatively titled “The Right to Be Wrong.” This could describe Lesley Stahl in 2020, claiming you couldn't verify Hunter Biden's laptop. She was wrong.
