Billionaire Ellison's Influence Over CBS Sparks Editorial Independence Concerns

CBS News turmoil escalates as billionaire Larry Ellison, who installed Bari Weiss as editor-in-chief, faces backlash from over 100 CBS veterans over firings at '60 Minutes'. The departures of correspondents Sharyn Alfonsi and Cecilia Vega, executive producer Tanya Simon, and others have ignited fears of a Trump-friendly shift.

Ellison's outreach to Lesley Stahl and hosting of Trump for dinner further fuel concerns about editorial independence as his company pursues a $111 billion bid for Warner Bros. Discovery.
