Lesley Stahl, who has spent decades as a correspondent for the seminal Sunday night newsmagazine 60 Minutes, is making it clear that she is “angry” with her corporate boss for looking to settle Donald Trump’s “frivolous” civil lawsuit against CBS News.
The legendary newswoman also said she is “pessimistic” about the future of 60 Minutes, adding that “we’re in very dark times” and that she’s already preemptively mourning the potential destruction of the long-running program amid an upcoming merger and the president’s attacks on legacy media.
