More rightwing propaganda on Bari Weiss's CBS Mornings today

I skipped the early part of that show - now watch GMA instead - but switched over later because they were going to have an interview with Patti Smith.

Soon after I switched to CBS, I heard analysis of today's elections including an assertion that Democratic wins would have nothing to do with Trump and his policies, because local elections are supposedly only about local issues.

They also did a segment condemning Harvard as a bad school where students don't learn, with lazy professors and grade inflation just making it appear that they do. And where students aren't exposed to different ideas, with conservative ideas being the ones they need to be exposed to most.

Harvard is a world renowned university and for CBS to do this is a travesty. I’m so happy we gave up our satellite TV some time back.

didn't really start until Weiss was brought in, when they soon cut back on criticism of Trump in their news segments.

For years that's been my favorite morning show, with decent news coverage as well as feature stories that are very well done.

The network capitulation to the wannabe dictator, and especially Weiss's cloddish RW propaganda, have destroyed CBS's credibility.

I call them mourning shows, where I mourn the death of TV. Sorry, those shows get my blood pressure up!
