It's twoooo, it's twooo. (Think of Madeline Kahn in 'Blazing Saddles'). CNN is nothing more than very boring specials. I wonder if MSNow would find a place for Anderson.
Daddy will always take care of daughterwife--after all, he wanted to date her. VacantFaceJared has family money, but it is bupkis (Yiddish for very little) compared to daddydonald who will always come across for her. Even if Melanomia gives her the stare..........
It's 3 syllables long. That's why Princess Ivanka doesn't know its definition. Not knowing what "complicit" means hasn't stopped either her or Jared the Creepy Horror Movie Guy from actually being complicit, has it?
Weiss also said, “News is in the eye of the beholder. And, the beholder is Donald Trump. Next week we”ll have a 60 Minutes on “How Much Better Federal Buildings Look With His Name Slapped on Them.”
As soon as possible, we will all gather in the appropriate places with appropriate tools and pry every reminder of this horror show off every place it defaces---right?? Who's with me?
This is what I've been day-dreaming every since I heard about the changes. Literally, you've been in my head - this thought is where I go to find joy these days.
Except, tragically, the divisive hatred and lowering opinions he sowed or gave unlimited power to express in the minds of a great many people. Things already there, like racism and misogyny, and new things, like anti-education, or at least education that can often unlock barriers such as racism and sexism.
We have to keep protesting and disobeying and speaking the truth--over and over and over again. The truth will out. These posts and comments and responses AS WELL AS ANDY are proof positive.
What about the gallows that were to be used for poor hapless Pence 1/6/21. It could be spray painted gold and have Trumpety Dumpety's name embossed on the top. The Donald John Trump Memorial Gallows.
We all better see Mt Rushmore quickly before trump blasts the faces off the monument and replaces them with one huge, fat trump face with little noem, Patel, bondi, miller, rfk jr, hegseth, musk (maybe) faces orbiting above his like an evil halo. Add in any faces I’m forgetting (I just woke up).
He’ll do it. And he’ll call it All the King’s Cabinet.
(And declare it the “best, most bigly national monument in America and the best, most bigly 8th wonder of the world.” The plaque underneath will give the site an entire new history, erasing everything that’s actually true.)
This could actually happen! As CBS becomes TBS -- or DJTBS (even though there is already a TBS which the Orange could eliminate with a swipe from his autopen)
All the news that fits. Soon to be called 60 seconds. “We regret to inform you that tonight’s story on the holocaust can’t be aired since Hitler hasn’t had a chance to review. “
In all fairness I’m sharing a meme that I saw on Reddit. But please feel free to share. It’s so appropriate to the horrific times we are in and not much of a stretch unfortunately.
Take a moment to thank our Canadian friends for posting the CECOT story; it may have inadvertently become the most watched 60 Minutes segment in history...and CBS won't even get the viewing ratings.
Will Weiss get the credit if Trump declares a new tariff against Canada?
I was able to find it on-line this morning, here https://www.readtpa.com/p/watch-the-60-minutes-segment-cbs . I understand that Ellison/CBS is trying to get any copies of it removed from the internet, so wanted to see it before it's gone. Clearly, there is no basis for Weiss pulling it last Sunday. She should be ashamed!
And Robert Reich! And Civic Shout, The Intercept, Common Cause and soooo many other voices in the dark. Resistance is strong and it’s smarter than this regime!
I need to toss in the Associated Press as well. As soon as I ditched my WAPO subscription, I took the money I would save and contributed it to AP. It is the longest running unbiased news source in the business and needs our support.
Andy, Please start a go fund me page to send Trump back to Epstein's Island, but limit donations to not include any food, just Kristi Noem and her gun.
The current “brain trust” at See BS News seems to have forgotten that Canada could broadcast what they attempted to censor here. Perhaps the new Voice of America will be broadcast from Ontario these days.
With the exception of a few good women (sorry Amy, you didn't make the cut)--they are just acquiescing to Clarence who is acquiescing to Trumpety Dumpety.
That likeness is scary. Which of Metamucilini's misguided wives is Eric's mother? Who is junior Ellison's mother? Could there be a mix up of parentage? Was Ellison senior also an "investor/client/friend" of Epsteins? I'm truly saddened that I can no longer enjoy 60 minutes, Sunday Morning (both of which were staples in my house while growing up in the 60's & 70's). Another one bites the dust. Thank goodness for MSNOW and Substack? Happy f***ing Xmas.
I watched CBS news last night and it was glaringly absent in any political news. The headliners were a several minute piece about a small plane that crashed into Galveston Bay, an explosion in a senior care center that killed no one and severe flooding in California that hasn't happened yet. This wasn't news; it was an episode of Weather CBS has Gone Viral.
I changed my mind. Last night's news was an episode of 'America's Funniest Videos'. I'd like to see a news show called 'The Good News' featuring only good news.
She is sort of with us. Poor old Ivana was cast aside in favor of Bimbo Marla Mapes (mother of forgotten-child Tiffanyeeeeee). But Ivana got even. Bigly settlement. For a time, Donnie Jr. wouldn't talk to daddy. They all made up. Years later, she fell down the stairs in her apartment in NYC. She was buried in a gold casket (really!) and is interred in ex's golf course (Bedminster) in N.J. You can't make this shit up.
Barry Weiss has officially en-joined the Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, Marco Rubio, Witkoff, Kushner and VD Vance Cabal to wish Donold & Melania Trump a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
Sometimes a spelling indicates gender. My name is often misspelled & it pisses me off. Let's spell Bari's name correctly. Assign credit & blame properly. "Barry Weiss" is an attorney I worked with in Beverly Hills.
Remove the C from CBS...and you have "BS"
The Ellisons would also like to remove the C from CNN = No News
See No News (borrowing from earlier comment)
Hear no news. Speak no news.
see no news. Only MAGA propaganda
It's twoooo, it's twooo. (Think of Madeline Kahn in 'Blazing Saddles'). CNN is nothing more than very boring specials. I wonder if MSNow would find a place for Anderson.
I block CNN after that last Trump Town Hall a while back. What fools they are! They give him too much air time.
MSNow is my one and only source for sane viewpoints.
Loved Madeline Kahn!
That’s my favorite movie ever.
I stopped watching CNN when they fired Don Lemon.
I’ve always called Cable Non News😉
Change the "C" to "B", and you have "Bari's Bull Shit".
Let’s see; the C could stand for Cowardly, Crazy, Crappy…any other suggestions?
and the intro to the former 60 Minutes, will be "tick, tick, boom"
More like tick.. tick..pfft.
<snort laugh>
Next up in emojis: <snort laugh>
oh, I can't wait to see that one!
--and then pop a spring or slowly wind down....
😅👏👏
(Seen the movie? It’s really good.)
I did enjoy it!
And the clock hands ticking backwards.
Very good. CBS-
Cowardly Broadcasting Service.
It’s a blessing Ed Murrow and Walter Cronkite are not alive to see this.
I feel the same about Katharine Graham & Ben Bradley with the Washington Post. All of these folks are rolling over in their graves.
There's a lot of spinning-in-their-graves going on these days (who can keep up with all the entries??).
I'm surprised the Earth hasn't come to a screeching halt & reversed direction by now to go backwards!
That'll happen when the glaciers and poles melt and you can surf from your front door!
as long as Rump and team are in office the earth is definately going backwards.
YUP.
I am nodding so rapidly by head might fall off. They'd be appalled. And they'd leave.
The thumping you hear is they doing hard casket-twirls!
clearly
Creepy?
Were you suggesting Creepy Bull Shit? I like that but there's also a place for Crass Bull Shit.
At least CBS left trumps name off the kennedy center honors last night.
probably an oversight for which they WILL be admonished
Ferruled with a gold-plated ruler!
Cruelly
comatose catastrophe creepy cringeworthy
contemptible
Creepy, Crummy, Coarse, Catastrophic...
See....BS.
How 'bout; "C for Complicit?"
but does she use Ivanka's definition of "complicit" or the real definition?
I don't think she even knew what the word means--she's as fraudulent as her father
Does Ivanka know how to spell? Or read....daddy doesn't.
Not necessary, because she know how to marry well.
Daddy will always take care of daughterwife--after all, he wanted to date her. VacantFaceJared has family money, but it is bupkis (Yiddish for very little) compared to daddydonald who will always come across for her. Even if Melanomia gives her the stare..........
Ouch, that hurt.

(sorry about the ads)
Hilarious!!!😅🤣😂
thanks!
That was great! I needed a good laugh this morning!!
Ivanka publicly acknowledged that she does not know the definition of 'complicit'
It's 3 syllables long. That's why Princess Ivanka doesn't know its definition. Not knowing what "complicit" means hasn't stopped either her or Jared the Creepy Horror Movie Guy from actually being complicit, has it?
Weiss-Scheiße. 4 minutes of slobbering Trumpf-Poo every Sunday night.
Too close to "Two Minutes Hate" for comfort!
Likewise, remove the S from CBS and you are left with Cowardly Bastards...also a definition of the Republican party.
See BS
Brilliant!!!
--or "C" could mean "Crappy"?
See BS
See BS?
Remove the SEE
brilliant comment!!
👍🏻 perfect!
Weiss also said, “News is in the eye of the beholder. And, the beholder is Donald Trump. Next week we”ll have a 60 Minutes on “How Much Better Federal Buildings Look With His Name Slapped on Them.”
As soon as possible, we will all gather in the appropriate places with appropriate tools and pry every reminder of this horror show off every place it defaces---right?? Who's with me?
I'm in. We'll have a bonfire.
Including the engraved lies on all those plaques below the photos in the presidential hall.
Especially those lies!!
With one addendum: Trump's official WH portrait will be a photo of a smear of excrement.
...inside a barred enclosure. maybe just a blank white canvas...?
As it should be!
What a wonderful image. Thank you.
What can I say? It's what best expresses my feelings about thr Orange Horror.
I think many agree with you.
Ew. I'm eating breakfast!
Bonfire of the Vanities
The Bonfire of the Vanities. Sort of an Oscar, only made of lead.
Oh, yeah...!
We'll call it Bonfire of the Vanity.
I'm in, Linda McCaughey!
This is what I've been day-dreaming every since I heard about the changes. Literally, you've been in my head - this thought is where I go to find joy these days.
We need to make it abundantly clear that there is nothing he can do that we cannot undo!
Except, tragically, the divisive hatred and lowering opinions he sowed or gave unlimited power to express in the minds of a great many people. Things already there, like racism and misogyny, and new things, like anti-education, or at least education that can often unlock barriers such as racism and sexism.
We have to keep protesting and disobeying and speaking the truth--over and over and over again. The truth will out. These posts and comments and responses AS WELL AS ANDY are proof positive.
Right on, girl!
Power to the People!!!!!!!
Love is unlimited. It unleashes light into darkness.
Another new thing: anti-science.
Me too
I'll bring the Genie lift.
Oh, thank you! I was hoping someone had one!!
Safety harnesses- lanyards - hard hats - everything we need.
I imagine the Smithsonian will want them for an exhibit on democracy.
What about the gallows that were to be used for poor hapless Pence 1/6/21. It could be spray painted gold and have Trumpety Dumpety's name embossed on the top. The Donald John Trump Memorial Gallows.
Yes! Oh, yes, please!!!
That's Meg Ryan's line.
Only after documenting it for the history books.
Count me in! I'll bring fortification!
Oops, for a minute there I thought you said fornication.
🤣🤣🤣
Definitely! With my cold, bleeding fingers I would do it!
Let me know where and when. I'm in.
Watch this space!!
And, find your best sledge hammer....
Bring on the chisels!
She can just borrow Wall Street Journal Editorial titles. A few recent examples (not making any of them up):
How the Supreme Court Can Improve Politics
Trump's Foreign Policy is Surprisingly Good for the World
America Needs More Husband Material
The Trump Rebound
Europe's Foolish War on X.com
Why is Autism Exploding? Welfare Fraud is One Reason
I sometimes think they are auditioning for a job at The Onion. Weiss would fit right in with that crowd.
My ears get red just reading the headlines. Tranquilizers definitely needed to wade into one of those stories.
Chocolate works too
Yes!
--along with sunglasses to prevent eyeburn!
Please tell me those are not really real....what an abject embarrassment!
Are you serious LHS? Does the Wall Street Journal now write fluff pieces? Sorry to ask, but I stopped reading it when I retired.
I wonder if he'll try billing the country for licensing fees for everything he plasters his name on?
That’s an AWESOME thought! And if it isn’t paid, of course he’ll sue!!!!
--by then, we hope, he'll be in jail and crying, "Boo, Hoo"!
What foolish ghoulish lawyer is there that would take a losing t-rump case. They all know they won’t get paid and likely will get disbarred.
We all better see Mt Rushmore quickly before trump blasts the faces off the monument and replaces them with one huge, fat trump face with little noem, Patel, bondi, miller, rfk jr, hegseth, musk (maybe) faces orbiting above his like an evil halo. Add in any faces I’m forgetting (I just woke up).
He’ll do it. And he’ll call it All the King’s Cabinet.
(And declare it the “best, most bigly national monument in America and the best, most bigly 8th wonder of the world.” The plaque underneath will give the site an entire new history, erasing everything that’s actually true.)
Don't give him any ideas!
Luckily, he doesn’t likely read TBR! 😉
Luckily, he doesn't read...Period!
Top Job reads this Substack.
Hiya!
Faces on the cliff, rocks in their heads!
(Har!)
That’s a misquote. Didn’t he actually say “News is in the behind of the beholder…”?
Surrounded by cheesy gold
This could actually happen! As CBS becomes TBS -- or DJTBS (even though there is already a TBS which the Orange could eliminate with a swipe from his autopen)
Vomit
All the news that fits. Soon to be called 60 seconds. “We regret to inform you that tonight’s story on the holocaust can’t be aired since Hitler hasn’t had a chance to review. “
Bingo! Best comment yet!
<appreciative applause>
In all fairness I’m sharing a meme that I saw on Reddit. But please feel free to share. It’s so appropriate to the horrific times we are in and not much of a stretch unfortunately.
What a great great great line.
--and someone stole the Ouija Board!
Take a moment to thank our Canadian friends for posting the CECOT story; it may have inadvertently become the most watched 60 Minutes segment in history...and CBS won't even get the viewing ratings.
Will Weiss get the credit if Trump declares a new tariff against Canada?
Who was it who suggested New England become a new Canadian province. I'm game!
We Coloradans want to be a Canadian province too! That’d be so awesome.
Yes, we do dear.
And Michigan, especially the U.P.! 'I can see Canada from my house!!'
The left coast is ready Robin.
I live in Maine and I would like to be part of the Maritimes.
The Gulf of Maine could become the Gulf of Canada:-)
And New York, and considerable swaths of PA, NJ, DC and maybe even DE. At least my part of PA. (Too old and not wealthy enough to emigrate.)
I wish New Mexico could get on that train
What about California? It's much warmer! Come on, Canada, pick us first!
Oh Canada, the true north strong and FREE!
Absolutely! Love that place, and many of the people who live there are cherished friends!
Tod Maffin, Canadian comic on youtube!! Shreds T et al.
Thank you BTAM Master -- Important to give major thanks to whoever in Canada made this airing possible. Oh, Canada -- dah dah dah dah dah daaaah.
I was able to find it on-line this morning, here https://www.readtpa.com/p/watch-the-60-minutes-segment-cbs . I understand that Ellison/CBS is trying to get any copies of it removed from the internet, so wanted to see it before it's gone. Clearly, there is no basis for Weiss pulling it last Sunday. She should be ashamed!
Thanks for finding this and sharing, Carla. Serious, terrible stuff; good for the Canadians who made it possible.
No Walter Cronkite. No 60 Minutes. Thank God for Fareed Zakaria and for the PBS NewsHour,
Heartfelt thanks for Rachel Maddow, Heather Cox Richardson, Paul Krugman, and Joyce Vance. The very best in the business. 🙏
And Robert Reich! And Civic Shout, The Intercept, Common Cause and soooo many other voices in the dark. Resistance is strong and it’s smarter than this regime!
Don't forget Mary Trump!
Oh, yes! There’s also Jay Kuo (The Status Kuo) and The Dworkin Report. And The Lincoln Project.
At first she was just the left-out-in-the-cold cousin....but look at her now!
Lawrence O'Donnell too as he tells it like it is!
Yes Lawrence does but he says it too many times. Way too many!
It needs to be repeated and he does it in different ways!
Not for me. It’s the same words over and over and over again.
I tape him, watch the first 5 minutes and then skip ahead past the first set of commercials. He brings a lot more joy to his broadcast that way.
If you can’t get his beginning message during the first 2 to 3 times thru ……….
And Jim Acosta!
And for Ali Velshi
I thank God for Reveal and Mother Jones....
I’ll add the Intercept, ProPublica, and there are others, oh Just Security is good too.
He’s already gone after PBS and NPR. But the donors have stepped up.
Amy Goodman @ Democracy Now. Pod Save America. Pod Save the World. Robert Reich. Stephen Colbert. Jon Stewart.
And The Guardian! And Mother Jones! And others already mentioned.
Don’t forget Mehdi Hasan, Nicole Wallace and Lawrence O’Donnell
I need to toss in the Associated Press as well. As soon as I ditched my WAPO subscription, I took the money I would save and contributed it to AP. It is the longest running unbiased news source in the business and needs our support.
And a new one: Tangle. Try it!
The AP did stand up to trump. And like the NYT, they still have integrity to grace their longevity.
Reuters, too. Straightforward news stories, without trying to make the story make you-know-who look good or feel good.
I realized it might be a good thing PBS was refunded, at least for the time being.
Autocorrect, defunded
Dee,
Just fyi, you can always edit your [own] comment by tapping on the 3 dots to the right of it.
Good to know. Thanks.
I learned this from jb months ago! Life changer!
Thank you. I needed to do that.
Oh Dee---I should have read your correction. My joy vanished. But important to know and deplore this reality.
Yes. And to Lawrence O'Donnell and others at MSNow. Lawrence's hatred for TrumpetyDumpety grows by leaps and bounds every night. It's palpable.
The Guardian rocks, too, and I like the NYT (usually).
Andy, Please start a go fund me page to send Trump back to Epstein's Island, but limit donations to not include any food, just Kristi Noem and her gun.
Send him to CECOT.
Thats my vote! CECOT!
I was thinking the same. Trump needs to experience what he dishes out to others.
trump's Elba! However, I'd rather it be in a deserted island off Africa.
Point Nemo.
Andy Rooney is spinning in his grave. Oh how I would love to hear his take on the hot mess that is now 60 Minutes.
All the original 60 Minutes crew are spinning with Andy, I’m sure.
Dan Rather is clearly sad about what has happened to CBS:
https://steady.substack.com/p/one-courageous-correspondent
https://steady.substack.com/p/heartbreak-for-cbs-news
No doubt. He took Cronkite's job when Walter retired, back when the network and the job meant something.
Thanks for your ever-present humor in these humorless times.
When it comes to news, the Guardian is free of Billionaire Bias...
The current “brain trust” at See BS News seems to have forgotten that Canada could broadcast what they attempted to censor here. Perhaps the new Voice of America will be broadcast from Ontario these days.
Yes! During WWII my British mother listened to Radio Free Europe-maybe we can have Radio Free America broadcast from Canada?
Phillip K. Dick
"The Voice of North America"?
What an outstanding idea.
I find it interesting that the people who are against censorship on social media are all for it everywhere else.
The supreme court will clear all that first amendment confusion up with a few shadow docket pronouncements.
The Supremes are questionable. The majority have turned their backs on us.
With the exception of a few good women (sorry Amy, you didn't make the cut)--they are just acquiescing to Clarence who is acquiescing to Trumpety Dumpety.
Yeah! Why bother with a long winded hearing!
Definitely! The Trump Supremes!
Beyond question.
Four minutes including three and a half minutes of commercials….
for tRump's products . . . the bankrupted ones will be resurrected and gilded in cheap gold paint (even the steaks!)
That likeness is scary. Which of Metamucilini's misguided wives is Eric's mother? Who is junior Ellison's mother? Could there be a mix up of parentage? Was Ellison senior also an "investor/client/friend" of Epsteins?

Yes. With the exception of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (sorry....only sometimes), MSNOW is on all the time.
I watched CBS news last night and it was glaringly absent in any political news. The headliners were a several minute piece about a small plane that crashed into Galveston Bay, an explosion in a senior care center that killed no one and severe flooding in California that hasn't happened yet. This wasn't news; it was an episode of Weather CBS has Gone Viral.
damn those Jewish space lasers!
Annette, they're deadly but they're kosher.
😅😅
--not to mention those goyish ones.....
That kind are too small to cause much damage, John.
I changed my mind. Last night's news was an episode of 'America's Funniest Videos'. I'd like to see a news show called 'The Good News' featuring only good news.
When I watch the news
ai expect precise reporting on our country’s
…..I expect precise and well documented facts…not blather🎄
Sadly, 2 people are known dead from that explosion.
Reporters for CBS news maybe? Gas was smelled 2 days prior and nothing was done about it.
Imagine my joy at seeing "the lucky sperm club" which i used in a magazine article in the early 70s!
Did you invent that? It has become common parlance!
Did you invent that? It has become common parlance / My ma did the same. 🤗
And here I thought it was Amy Tan.
She's maybe 15 years junior to me...
Oh I realize now that I was confused. Just seeing joy, luck and club in order threw me off track:-)
How old is she?
I think Eric's mom is no longer with us.
She is sort of with us. Poor old Ivana was cast aside in favor of Bimbo Marla Mapes (mother of forgotten-child Tiffanyeeeeee). But Ivana got even. Bigly settlement. For a time, Donnie Jr. wouldn't talk to daddy. They all made up. Years later, she fell down the stairs in her apartment in NYC. She was buried in a gold casket (really!) and is interred in ex's golf course (Bedminster) in N.J. You can't make this shit up.
Just like old Yeller, snif ;-(
The turds who now run once-proud CBS News
Make it clear that they have neither scruples nor clues.
Where once Eric Sevareid broadcast his views,
The staff is now leaving by ones and by twos.
And that fine ticking stopwatch that heralded Rather
Now announces an hour of MAGAfied Blather.
If you must spike your story of outlaws like ICE,
Take that call from the White House,
Then call Bari Weiss.
Barry Weiss has officially en-joined the Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, Marco Rubio, Witkoff, Kushner and VD Vance Cabal to wish Donold & Melania Trump a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
Best to learn to spell her name before you criticize her!
I thought it was actually spelled "Bury".
(as in:~)
https://dictionary.reverso.net/english-definition/bury
It's actually spelled B-O-Z-O
Maybe it's the middle name?
We wish....
News Flash! Weiss' sole supporter mistakenly reads TBR thinking (s)he was on Breitbart.
Awwww. Did your feelings for Barry (intentional spelling) get hurt?
Sometimes a spelling indicates gender. My name is often misspelled & it pisses me off. Let's spell Bari's name correctly. Assign credit & blame properly. "Barry Weiss" is an attorney I worked with in Beverly Hills.
Who cares? I heard she’s changing her name to Complicit
