A social media user on Monday shared at least part of a “60 Minutes” segment about a prison in El Salvador—where the Trump administration sent hundreds of migrants—after CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss controversially blocked its release.
“Canadians, behold! (And Americans on a VPN.) The canceled ‘60 Minutes’ story has appeared on the Global TV app—almost certainly by accident,” Jason Paris wrote on Bluesky, sharing a link to download a nearly 14-minute video of the segment.
Though the post can no longer be seen, the footage has since been uploaded here.
The segment is titled “Inside CECOT,” the Spanish abbreviation for El Salvador’s Terrorism Confinement Center.
“Watch fast, before Corus gets a call from Paramount Skydance,” Paris added. Corus Entertainment owns Global TV. Paramount and Skydance merged earlier this year, after winning approval from the Trump administration. Weiss, a right-wing pundit, was then appointed to her position.
In a leaked email, “60 Minutes” correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi wrote that “Bari Weiss spiked our story,” and “in my view, pulling it now, after every rigorous internal check has been met, is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.”
The post Watch the 60 Minutes segment blocked by CBS’ News chief appeared first on Raw Story.
