Key Highlights

• "CBS News is a wreck, it’s just gone.
• CBS News for decades, going back to World War II — before World War II — they would be, Ed Murrow would be broadcasting the blitz of London from the rooftop of buildings in London for CBS Radio.""And it was that mentality that drove the integrity of CBS News that has been trampled on, pissed on, and eviscerated by these idiots that have taken it over.
• And I’m at a point now where it really is hurting my feelings.
• Because I’m sick and tired of people saying, ‘Oh, wait until those midterms.’ Kids, we’re far downstream of the midterms having any effect on this," Letterman said.
• Bari Weiss, who founded The Free Press, was named editor-in-chief of CBS News in October.
