CBS News Turmoil Continues
The Writers Guild of America, East, has strongly condemned CBS News for its recent layoffs and the firing of longtime '60 Minutes' correspondent Scott Pelley.
The union argues that these actions demonstrate a 'profound contempt for the journalism profession,' while remaining correspondents pledge to stay.
The three remaining correspondents on '60 Minutes' have publicly stated their commitment to the show, saying they 'don't want to see '60 Minutes' die.' Meanwhile, Scott Pelley is reportedly pursuing a new career path, with some suggesting his firing was a strategic move on his part.
The turmoil at CBS News continues to draw scrutiny.
