The sudden withdrawal of a flagship investigative report by CBS News has triggered a firestorm of allegations regarding political appeasement and the erosion of journalistic independence under new leadership.
In a move that stunned the world, CBS pulled a pre-recorded 60 Minutes segment titled 'Inside CECOT' just three hours before its scheduled 19:30 broadcast. The investigation, helmed by veteran correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi, detailed the deportation of over 200 Venezuelan migrants to a Salvadoran mega-prison where they reportedly faced 'brutal and torturous' treatment.
