Surprise: The "Reporter" Who Leaked and Whined That Her Hit-Piece Got Held Up Turns Out to Have a History of Batty Leftwing Propaganda Pieces

'60 Minutes' Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi, Who Cried Foul Over Delayed Immigration Piece, Was Behind 'Intentionally False' Hit Piece on Ron DeSantis That Even Democrats Said Was Wrong

Alfonsi's immigration piece needed additional reporting, Editor in Chief Bari Weiss told CBS staff

A 60 Minutes correspondent is up in arms after CBS management delayed a story decrying the deportation of illegal aliens from the United States to a maximum security prison in El Salvador, accusing CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss of caving to political pressure and betraying sacred journalistic principles. The correspondent, Sharyn Alfonsi, was behind an embarrassing 2021 flub at 60 Minutes in which she falsely reported that Gov. Ron DeSantis (R., Fla.) gave preferential treatment to a campaign donor to distribute coronavirus vaccines.
...
In her leaked email to her colleagues, Alfonsi accused CBS News and Weiss of engaging in "corporate censorship" and of "betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism." Reporters at CBS News are threatening to quit over the Weiss decision, CNN's Brian Stelter reported (it's unlikely that anyone will actually quit due to the fast-shrinking job market for television reporters).

LOL.

...
There's precedent warranting additional legwork on Alfonsi's segments. Alfonsi was the lead correspondent on a debunked story in 2021 that DeSantis gave preferential treatment to the supermarket chain Publix to distribute coronavirus vaccines because the company donated $100,000 to DeSantis's campaign.
"How is that not pay-to-play?" Alfonsi asked DeSantis when she confronted him after one of the governor's press conferences.
Several Florida officials, including Democrats, blasted the 60 Minutes report, saying that DeSantis's office was not involved in awarding contracts to Publix.
Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D., Fla.), who oversaw Florida's emergency management division in 2021 and is known for tangling with the GOP, said that the division recommended Publix for the contract because other pharmacies were not equipped to distribute vaccines.
"No one from the Governor's office suggested Publix. It's just absolute malarkey," he said.
Then-Palm Beach County mayor Dave Kerner (D.) called the story "intentionally false." Publix said the story was "absolutely false and offensive." And DeSantis said the story provides an example of "why nobody trusts corporate media."
"They are a disaster in what they are doing," the governor said. "They knew what they were doing was a lie."
Poynter, a media watchdog group funded largely by liberal charities, called the report a "sloppy moment" that "misses the mark." The Publix donations to DeSantis's campaign were "neither illegal nor unusual," according to Poynter.
CBS did not correct or apologize for the segment, only issuing a narrow statement defending why it edited down DeSantis's comments to Alfonsi and pointing out that DeSantis declined 60 Minutes' offer for a full sit-down interview.
...

Alfonsi never weighed in on her faulty DeSantis report beyond the narrow statement issued by CBS. 60 Minutes rarely apologizes for or corrects its reporting unless confronted with widespread public opprobrium and overwhelming evidence that its reporting was false.

In more propaganda news: NPR is warning its reporters from continuing to cite a "law professor" named Carl Tobias, who is apparently on dozens and dozens of reporters' cell phones as someone willing to give them whatever quote they need to sell the main political point they're trying to make.

Apparently he's almost always cited as "an expert," and an expert in many different fields. Whatever you need an "expert" to comment on, Carl Tobias is your one-stop shop.

Making this even funnier -- NPR media reporter David Folkenflik quoted this "rent-a-quote" professor in two recent Trump-related media stories. https://t.co/CTDcKZAj9e pic.twitter.com/DlIov1CK2F
— Chuck Ross (@ChuckRossDC) December 22, 2025

I know what you're thinking: this self-declared media-friendly "expert" in all matters that the media is obsessing about in Current Day must be a conservative.

Duh, you're so dumb sometimes. He's a reliable "expert" willing to offer every leftwing propagandist an "expert quote" on whatever political op the Democrats are running today.

In 2016, for example, he was offering Politico quotes about Trump's list of possible Supreme Court picks being "known for political activism," despite none actually having any such history.

University of Richmond law professor Carl Tobias is quoted in Politico characterizing Donald Trump's list of putative Supreme Court "candidates" as "fairly notable people but more for their active politics than maybe their jurisprudence." Tobias is not quoted as providing any evidence for this claim.
It's not worth a great deal of time debating the makeup of Trump's list. Like most of Trump's policy statements, it won't bind Trump should he ever be in a position to nominate a Supreme Court justice. It's more of an olive branch to conservatives worried about the future of the court than a real short list for a vacancy. Trump's actual list may be completely different if the opportunity ever presented itself.

This is from National Review, thus the intense anti-Trump animus. And also, the intense being-wrong-about-everything-ness.

I do think, however, that Professor Tobias's statement does a great disservice to those judges who -- through no fault, wish or desire of their own -- ended up on Trump's list. The overwhelming majority of the eleven judges on the list have had little to no involvement in elected politics (of the non-judicial election sort). Many are names that 99.9 percent of Americans have never heard of -- jurists who have had distinguished careers in academia, public service and the judiciary
Take, for instance, the federal judges on the list. Steve Colloton, Tom Hardiman, Diane Sykes, Ray Kethledge, and Raymond Gruender were all appointed to the bench by George W. Bush after careers in private practice (Kethledge and Hardiman), as United States Attorneys (Colloton and Gruender) or as state court judges (Sykes). Bill Pryor, now on the Eleventh Circuit, served as the Attorney General of Alabama before he was recess appointed by President Bush after being filibustered by Senate Democrats. (He was later confirmed by the Senate). But Judge Pryor has hardly been a political activist from the bench. In fact, he was appointed by President Obama to serve on the U.S. Sentencing Commission, which you might think would not have happened if he were a conservative political activist.

For Christmas, I want to see Brown Univ foisted.

I also want Conan OBrien foisted.

In case you're unawares, rumors have it that Conan OBrian personally poo-poo'd the idea to his other guests of calling 911 to intervene between Meathead & his angry son.

So, Conan OBryan, whom I hate, is partly responsible for Meathead & Mrs Meathead getting butchered by their own son.

89 60 Minutes rarely apologizes for or corrects its reporting unless confronted with widespread public opprobrium and overwhelming evidence that its reporting was false.

Which is why nobody should believe a thing 60 Minutes reports. The most surprised people when 60 Minutes is called on for false reporting are the 60 Minutes reporters.

I openly laugh at anyone who cites anything 60 Minutes reports as fact. Alex Jones is more truthful, by far.

98 It's crazy that the media still thinks the "experts say" works.

Sure, on deranged Boomers who consume 14 hours of programming a day.

Here's what "experts say" really means:
1) If they're not named, they're 80% fake; 30% rent-a-quote (110% false)
2) if they are named, 100% of the time, their partisan background is hidden.
Exception: if they are a RINO from an alleged conservative institution attacking conservatives, then the background is up front.
3) 0% of their "legal" experts have been right about any of the pending cases against Trump when they reach the SCOTUS. Yet never are their prior prognostications disclosed.
Seems like an ought-fer W/L record would be relevant to their "expert" status.

But for real, the media has had a roladex of go-to experts to give them a quote on what ever they want them to say for decades.
How bad must he be to put this in writing?

The best ones are those who go into court to testify.

I was on a murder trial jury once. The defense had an 'expert' testify that the sound on a home security camera was faulty or something, and tried to prove it with some audio software. Unforts for him, one of the jurists was an audio engineer. He didn't say anything until the case was over, but he ripped the expert testimony to the judge. Was the funniest part of a stupid trial.

Chinese marine rated steel, and Chinese laminated armor plate, both would make me nervous. Their quality control is such that every time one of those ships goes into salt water it turns into a giant battery and starts eroding.
It might last long enough, or it might turn out like those submarines. Depends.

'In case you're unawares, rumors have it that Conan OBrian personally poo-poo'd the idea to his other guests of calling 911 to intervene between Meathead & his angry son.'

Oh. Shit.
"No. Calling the police would be blowing it out of proportion. They'll be all right in the morning."

175 166 Government collapse is wishful thinking. Both Cuba and Iran will supply the rulers with electricity and water. The people will suffer. How can they or the UK overthrow Herr Starmer without guns.

You don’t understand how bad Cuba’s situation is. No one is going to overthrow it; what’s going to happen is that all of the electricity for the island is goin to fail, and go down, and no one will be able to turn it back on again, no matter how many people they shoot.

And yes I can see a wave of starvation that might kill half the people there, and the other half will be eating their corpses just to stay alive.

176 I have an old affinity to mini-skirts and fishnet hosiery. Not that I was ever...

But I do remember very good looking gals wearing that combo.

177 So, tomorrow's rosary will be for the Cuban and Persian people.

You know, anybody can perform baptism. It doesn't have to be a priest.

179 155 I was voluntold to become the elevator SME (subject matter expert) in the office. All that meant was I had all the current manufactures manuals and knew what needed fire rating and what did not, and I understood the comically complex formula to determine speed and size of said elevators. Any fool could look all that up on his own. After all, that’s all I did.

Expert.

I'd this group of kids the elevator next to us was pretty safe, but the one we were on was kinda shaky.

180 Wasn't Red China salvaging old WW2 shipwrecks, which is illegal, and stealing the good steel from the 1920s and 30s and 40s?
