Thanks, Bari Weiss: You’ve Turned 60 Minutes Into a SKELETON

Hysteria | June 6, 2026



Erin and Alyssa get into the firing of Scott Pelley and the chaos Bari Weiss is causing at CBS.

Political commentator and comedy writer Erin Ryan and former White House Deputy Chief of Staff Alyssa Mastromonaco are joined by a bicoastal squad of funny, opinionated women to talk through everything from reproductive rights to romcoms. They break down the political news of the week, plus the topics, trends, and cultural stories that affect women’s lives. New episodes drop every Thursday. Get in touch: hysteria@crooked.com.

    No 60 min has turned into a left wing joke, remember when they edited the Kamala tape so she would not look like a total idiot. Sorry but Bari is trying to bring the show back to center where it started. Your boss is your boss, you may not agree but what arrogance Pelley has to talk to his boss that way.

    They broke it when they started making up stories to push their liberal agenda. They are not journalists, they’re activists. What they do has nothing to do with journalism.

    With all due respect to the ladies and their taste with Scott Pelley, I love stories shown and told by Sharyn Alfonsi. I like her voice and way of walking more, but I hope both people land on their feet. YouTube is overdone, and thus they need an investigative reporting show on NBC, Netflix, or some popular network or platform. Even PBS would be interesting.

    I have a feeling Bari Weiss sees her calling mainly as a Hasbara agent and everything else is subordinate to that. So if she kills 60 Minutes she doesn't care as long as she managed to get something for the Zionist cause out of it

    Bari Weiss has the charisma of a foot! 🦶 Why anyone finds her good looking, let alone attractive, is actually more disgusting than what she’s doing to 60 Minutes, and she, the Ellisons, and the current show put the show in shitshow!!!

    I can tell you this, she’s no Erin Ryan, let alone no Alyssa Mastromonaco!!!

    …which was precisely the intention. the fragile doddering old man-child sleeping in the oval office
    didn't like what was being said about him, so he got a rich sycophant to buy the network, and gut it

    Fun fact: Black population of Russia is estimated to be between 40 to 70 thousand people out of a total population for the country of 144 million. Sounds like a dream country for MAGA to emigrate to in the very near future. However, they would have to find someone else to scapegoat for their problems.
    As to the future of 60 minutes, the three remaining correspondents, Lesley Stahl, Bill Whitaker and Jon Wertheim have issued a joint statement that sharply criticized the recent moves by management and that while they considered also leaving, they decided to stay for now to hopefully preserve the legacy of the broadcast. They also added ""If we can continue doing the work that made this show what it is… we're here for it. If not, we leave."

    The Scott Pelley situation reminds me of the movie "Good Night and Good Luck," and how CBS was unhappy with Edward R. Murrow's coverage of Joe McCarthy. Perhaps history is repeating?

    Agree that Barry Weiss is a loser, but if this show is so special and revered what is to keep another network or startup from starting
    60 minutes – 1 , or
    1 hour = 60 minutes or
    Better 60 minutes ?

    If it's such a well-respected icon certainly someone's going to do that
