CBS News staffers are comparing the network’s new editor-in-chief to right-wing mega-billionaire Elon Musk after she sent out an email Friday morning urging employees to detail how they spend their workday and get their answers to her by Tuesday.
In her message to the thousand-plus employees of CBS News, which The Independent has obtained and reviewed, Bari Weiss wrote that it had been a “whirlwind week” since it was announced that she’d been installed as the network’s top editor and her anti-woke digital outlet had been purchased by CBS’s parent company Paramount.
