_Voices Support Us Bari Weiss's "60 Minutes" Hires Producer Who Downplayed Gaza Starvation, Justified Killing Journalists

Bari Weiss's latest hire for "60 Minutes," whose major journalistic output includes smearing genocide victims and putting a target on the backs of reporters in Gaza, shows that the full-blown right-wing tabloidification of the television news program is charging ahead.

If one held out hope that U.S. media would seek to reverse course after its support for genocide in Gaza over the past 34 months, those hopes were severely misplaced. The mainstream media's lockstep support for genocide, which I document in my recent book on the subject, has not abated, and in key ways it's only ramped up, become more explicit, and removed any remaining pretense of editorial independence.
