Phillips arrives at CBS with controversy in tow, thanks to eyebrow-raising comments he made about Peter Mandelson, a onetime friend of Epstein\u2019s. <\/p>\n<p>Phillips told The Brink podcast in February that he remains friends with Mandelson, Britain\u2019s former ambassador to the U.S., despite his links to Epstein, the sex trafficking pedophile.<\/p>\n<p>Arguing that nobody is \u201cperfect,\u201d Phillips said he had \u201cabsolutely no time\u201d for people who had deserted Mandelson after the U.S. Justice Department\u2019s Epstein files dump revealed he had corresponded closely with Epstein years after the pedophile\u2019s conviction for soliciting a child for sex. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you choose somebody to be your friend, you are taking all of their weaknesses. Those of us who were and are Peter\u2019s friend, know about his weaknesses,\u201d said Phillips, who is also a columnist for The Times of London. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am not going to pretend that all of the good things I saw in Peter Mandelson for five decades have suddenly become nugatory,\u201d he continued. \u201cWhat would that say about me as a person if I suddenly decided to unperson somebody because of what I discovered about them?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Phillip\u2019s comments came after the Metropolitan Police launched an investigation into emails that appear to show Mandelson leaking sensitive government information to Epstein while serving as the U.K. business secretary in 2009 and 2010.<\/p>\n<p>Phillips said that he was \u201cabsolutely not\u201d surprised by the revelations about Mandelson and that he had not misjudged his character. Mandelson acted as best man at Phillips\u2019 first wedding, according to The Telegraph. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ll forgive me if I don\u2019t go into this in too much detail, but for those of us who have been close to Peter Mandelson for a long time, there is no secret about his attraction to a certain kind of life\u2014lifestyle, his predilection for a certain sort of social circle,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=1242\">Trump, 79, Admits He\u2019s Dreading His Upcoming Birthday<\/a><\/p>\n<p>CBS did not immediately respond to a request for comment. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to his questionable relationships, Phillips has found himself embroiled in controversy in the past, with much of it stemming from allegations of Islamophobia dating back years.<\/p>\n<p>Phillips was suspended from the Labour Party in 2020 pending an investigation into comments about Pakistani Muslim men sexually abusing children, as well as criticisms leveled at some Muslims for not wearing poppies for Remembrance Sunday. <\/p>\n<p>His suspension was later lifted in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Phillips wouldn\u2019t be the first of Weiss\u2019 hires to bring Epstein-related baggage with them. <\/p>\n<p>The former anti-woke opinion journalist, who was installed by Trump-friendly Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison, hired Peter Attia, a so-called \u201cwellness guru,\u201d as one of CBS News\u2019 new \u201cstar\u201d contributors in January. <\/p>\n<p>But the DOJ\u2019s Epstein files dump included nearly 2,000 references to Attia, including dozens of emails between Attia and Epstein showing the two men joking playfully about women, exchanging compliments, and alluding to a close friendship\u2014years after the disgraced financier\u2019s 2008 conviction for procuring a child for prostitution.<\/p>\n<p>Amid a firestorm over his friendship with the late sex offender, Attia tendered his resignation less than four weeks after getting hired. <\/p>\n<p>Weiss added to her growing list of hiring controversies this month, after firing <i>60 Minutes<\/i> executive producer Tanya Simon, and replacing her with Nick Bilton, a tech journalist with no TV experience who received a hostile welcome at his first staff meeting. <\/p>\n<p>Longtime correspondent Scott Pelley confronted Bilton in front of other staff members, pressing him on the firings and telling the new boss that he would \u201cnever be welcome\u201d at <i>60 Minutes<\/i>. <\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The heated exchange reportedly earned Pelley applause from his colleagues, but Bilton and Weiss fired him a day later.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=1240\">Supreme Court Justice Targets Rule Older Than Civil War<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MAGA-coded CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss has hired a British broadcaster who outed himself as an apologist for a self-described \u201cbest pal\u201d of Jeffrey Epstein.
