AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
Podcaster Tim Dillon opened his latest show with a drag impersonation of CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss discussing her huge salary and staging an anything-but-challenging interview with ex-Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino, played by actor and comedian Mario Bosco.
Dillon has long been a critic of Weiss and the mega-deal she made to sell what he called her "glorified blog," The Free Press, to billionaire David Ellison for $150 million in cash and stock. The deal with Ellison also elevated Weiss to editor-in-chief of CBS News, despite the fact she worked at The New York Times as an opinion editor before being fired, but never in the news division.
