The CBS News Crisis

Listen Later

CBS News, under the leadership of Bari Weiss, continues to devolve into chaos. On Tuesday, CBS News fired longtime "60 Minutes" correspondent Scott Pelley. It came a day after Pelley reportedly said Weiss was "murdering the show" and accused its new producer of having "slender qualifications" for the job. Here to talk about it all is Jeremy Barr, media reporter for The Guardian US.

And in headlines, the House for the first time Wednesday approves a war powers resolution that would halt the US military action against Iran, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin testifies on Capitol Hill, and just how rich is Elon Musk? Tune in to find out.
