NEW YORK (AP) — Saying "We don't want to see '60 Minutes' die," the three remaining correspondents at the turmoil-plagued CBS News program have decided to stay, for now.
A memo from Lesley Stahl, Jon Wertheim and Bill Whitaker to fellow staffers expressed anger — and grief — over the recent firings at the show, and said the three had had "a hard time" deciding whether to remain.
"Here's why we are staying: We don't want to see '60 Minutes' die," the three wrote in the joint memo obtained by The Associated Press on Friday.
