Disgust of the Day!

Here I am again.  Two days in a row.  How about that?  Maybe this is the start of a trend.

But I couldn't resist calling attention to today's disgusting event.  While most eyes are focused on the vote for Trump's budget bill I'm resigned to that passing and am looking at something else: CBS caving in and giving Trump $16 million to make him go away in his lawsuit saying that 60 Minutes did bad things to him when it edited an interview with Kamala Harris.

$16 million just happens to be the same amount ABC paid him when he complained about a broadcast he didn't like.  Shameful!  Disgusting!

These are bribes, paid to curry favor with a bully who threatens their business.  Freedom of the press?  Hiding under the table pretending to be invisible.  Taking a stand for truth, consequences be damned?  Nowhere to be seen.  Disgusting!

For decades, 60 Minutes has stood atop the news world: trusted, interesting, relevant.  Will that be the way it is going forward?  I'd like to say yes, but my confidence level that it will be same is low.  That, truly, is a shame!
