CBS "News" Hires Right-Leaning Ombudsman to Reply to Public Criticism Over Its Reportage; Leftwing Propagandists Are Scandalized That Someone Who Leans Right Is Allowed a Job in Their Totally-Nonpartisan "News" Rooms

Maybe Paramount's new non-woke owners are serious about reforming the dogshit communist "news" outfit.


The new owner of CBS News has hired conservative policy veteran Kenneth R. Weinstein, former president and CEO of Hudson Institute, to be the news outlet's ombudsman.

New owner Paramount made the announcement Monday.

The move comes amid the network's challenge to compete with the country's two other premier, long-time TV news outlets, ABC News and NBC News, and heavy pressure from President Trump about what he and others consider CBS News' political bias.

In July, Paramount Global agreed to pay $16 million to settle a legal dispute with Trump regarding an interview last fall the network broadcast with his presidential race rival -- Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris.

Trump alleges the network deceptively edited the interview, which aired on its "60 Minutes" news program, to "tip the scales in favor of the Democratic Party." Paramount did not include a statement of apology or regret.

Last week, CBS changed its interview policy after Homeland Secretary Kristi Noem made similar complaints about her recent "Face the Nation" interview.

From now on, CBS will now only broadcast live or live-to-tape interviews so that the television audience can see the full, unedited interview.

Pretty sure that's wrong -- I think CBS only said that Face the Nation will do this. 60 Minutes will continue editing politicians' words like they're reality show contestants, with Democrats getting the Hero Edit and Republicans getting the Asshole Edit.


In the ombudsman role, Weinstein will review editorial questions and concerns from outside entities and employees.

...

"We look forward to welcoming Ken as our new Ombudsman," Paramount President Jeff Shell said in a statement. "At a time when trust in media is more important than ever, this new role reinforces our commitment to truth, trust, and accountability.

The left rushed to congratulate Weinstein on his new job. After all, "news" rooms are completely ecumenical as far as politics, so of course one single conservative-leaning voice is welcome! They're not running a Closed Political Shop, after all!

@BrendanCarrFCC

The New York Times is very upset that CBS selected a former advisor to President Trump & Trump nominee as an ombudsman as part of its new commitment to fair, fact-based reporting.

But diversity of viewpoints is a good thing ! And the NYT could learn a thing or two about that.

A leftwing Karen movie critic sent her congratulations:

CBS was once called "The Tiffany Network" for its unimpeachable and fearless commitment to the news. It is a disgrace to see the network that once gave us Edward R. Murrow and the glory days of 60 Minutes cower to the corrupt and incompetent.

Question: If conservatives can't be trusted in media roles -- then why the fuck are communists and left-wingers and even liberals to be trusted?

They lefties always tell us: Our personal politics are not relevant. We put them aside to only report "the facts."

It tells me that you're liars when you immediately assert that no one with conservative politics can similarly compartmentalize them. You're telling on yourselves -- you fill the "news" with your personal (Marxist) beliefs so you assume that everyone else is a propagandist, too.

Not only aren't conservatives welcome -- neither are Jews who do not call for the eradication of Israel.

Max Blumenthal
@MaxBlumenthal

With a deal in the works to install Bari Weiss as editor of CBS News, Paramount has installed neocon Hudson Institute leader and former Trump appointee Kenneth Weinstein as CBS ombudsman.

During a 2021 Hudson event with Mike Pence, Weinstein touted his Israel lobbyist creds, describing how he'd been groomed by the Tikvah Fund, the Likudnik training network which will award Bari Weiss its Herzl Award this November. Weinstein also described the right-wing Israel lobby financier Roger Hertog as his "mentor."

During Q&A, after Pence called for the US to wage an unprovoked war on Iran on Israel's behalf, Weinstein chimed in to endorse the proposal.

As support for Israel plummets among American youth and Democratic voters amid a gruesome live-streamed genocide, the stage is set for CBS News' takeover by unabashed Likudnik propagandists desperate to turn back the tide of dissent.


He's got a lot of work to do:

is a Spanish imperative verb meaning "report," "report back," "check in," or "control yourself" depending on the context. It is a command directed at a single person to provide an update, inform the speaker, or exercise self-control.

"The phrase employs delenda, the feminine singular gerundive form of the verb dēlēre ("to destroy"). The gerundive (or future passive participle) delenda is a verbal adjective that may be translated as "to be destroyed". When combined with a form of the verb esse ("to be"), it adds an element of compulsion or necessity, yielding "is to be destroyed", or, as it is more commonly rendered, "must be destroyed". The gerundive delenda functions as a predicative adjective in this construction, which is known as the passive periphrastic."

119 from wikipedia

The phrase employs delenda, the feminine singular gerundive form of the verb dēlēre ("to destroy").[34] The gerundive (or future passive participle) delenda is a verbal adjective that may be translated as "to be destroyed". When combined with a form of the verb esse ("to be"), it adds an element of compulsion or necessity, yielding "is to be destroyed", or, as it is more commonly rendered, "must be destroyed". The gerundive delenda functions as a predicative adjective in this construction,[35] which is known as the passive periphrastic.

The short form of the phrase, Carthago delenda est, is an independent clause. Consequently, the feminine singular subject noun Carthago appears in the nominative case.[36] The verb est functions as a copula—linking the subject noun Carthago to the predicative verbal adjective delenda—and further imparts a deontic modality to the clause as a whole.[ii] Because delenda is a predicative adjective in relation to the subject noun Carthago, it takes the same number (singular), gender (feminine) and case (nominative) as Carthago.[37]

But the initial sin, which led to the pregnancy that God terminated, happened while he was still alive.

It's why David urged Uriah to go home and sleep with his wife. To cover up the adultery and give the impression that Uriah was actually the father.

It doesn't matter on a moral plane. The sin was still what it was. But let's just be clear on what the Biblical text says.

Lot offered his two virgin daughters, but the "men" just wanted to booger the strangers. (they were "man enough" to not be trans, just wanted to "dominate" the strangers, mark their territory?) Seems like a prophesy of the coming of the savior ... pure, but rejected.

Must be a real shitty list of those nobodies are who they highlighted. It’s pure virtue signaling. Look how it’s worded: they won’t work with Israeli film institutions “complicit in genocide.” So any other Israeli intietuioms are OK? This is like me saying I won’t have sex with any beautiful women with penises.

He warned his sons-in-law, but they thought he was goofing.

Similar to the success Noah had in persuading the antediluvian people. Years and Years of warning - zero converts. Not even his or his wife's parents, kin, cousins, no one but his three sons and their wives.

357 There are a lot of interesting lessons when you do a close reading of the stories of the characters in the OT. For example, multiple wives are never expressly forbidden, nor are multiple partners (even Abraham had children by Haggai, for example) BUT every man who has multiple wives eventually has his life made into a hell because of it.

listen and learn.

359 Paramount has had some fairly non-woke shows recently. I've enjoyed Landman so far. The title character is a guy who acquires and/or leases land on behalf of an oil company, and also acts as a general purpose fixer... said fixing occasionally involving illegal or violent activities. Stars Billy Bob Thornton. Good show, and lots of scenes that would cause a wokie to throw a clot.

It's a Taylor Sheridan show, which I don't know how that guy possibly manages to juggle that many quality series at the same time.

Now if Paramount will just unwokify Star Trek...

361 Carthago delenda est.

Carthage is to be (totally) destroyed.

The “est” sets up the “is to be” in conjunction with “delenda”. Cicero actually said: Ceterum (autem) censeo Carthaginem esse delendam, which he used to finish any public speech - meaning “Furthermore, I think that Carthage must be destroyed.” Carthago delenda est is a shorter way to say this.

363 The saddest thing is, all Hannibal really accomplished was the hurt Rome enough that they HAD to exterminate Carthage. When the last punic war started, Carthage was just trying to defend itself from Numindia, and they violated the no standing army thing and boom, Rome wiped them out.

Rome built a colony there after some time that lasted. The taking of that colony by the Vandals helped speed the breaking up of the West empire. In 455 AD they even sacked Rome itself.

Byzantium eventually took out the Vandals in the 520s AD
