- CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss is reportedly facing scrutiny for allegedly interfering with interview assignments for the program 60 Minutes.
- Senior Foreign Correspondent Holly Williams was reportedly replaced by Trevor Phillips for a high-profile interview with British politician Nigel Farage.
- Weiss previously faced controversy for reportedly pulling a 60 Minutes segment about Venezuelan migrants sent by the Trump administration to an El Salvadoran prison, which aired nearly a month later.
- Internal dissent has been reported, including allegations that Weiss herself booked an interview with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, bypassing veteran correspondent Lesley Stahl, and that former correspondent Scott Pelley accused her of 'murdering' the program.
- A source familiar with the matter denies Weiss is meddling, stating that an editor-in-chief should be involved in major decisions, and Weiss has defended her actions as part of her job description.
