I know that Mike Wallace is looking down at you with pride at this very moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wallace died in 2012, at the age of 93. He was a stalwart of CBS\u2019s flagship news show, 60 Minutes,from its debut in 1968 until 2008.<\/p>\n<p>During his presentation, Pelley also noted <i>60 Minute<\/i>s correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi was in the audience, on the same day she announced she had been iced out of the flagship CBS news show following political interference.<\/p>\n<p>MAGA-curious CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss shelved an Alfonsi report that was critical of President Donald Trump at the eleventh hour last year.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=149\">How Trump Is Blinded by His Lunatic MAGA Faithful: Political Guru<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The report, on the grisly conditions at an El Salvador megaprison where Venezuelan men deported by the Trump administration were being held, was pulled by Weiss in an early act of editorial control. <\/p>\n<p>Revealing that CBS did not renew her contract, which expired on Saturday, Alfonsi referenced the \u201ceditorial dispute\u201d over the yanked <i>60 Minutes<\/i> episode when talking to The New York Times.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt sends a chilling message to the entire newsroom,\u201d Alfonsi said. \u201cIt was a deliberate choice to penalize a journalist for refusing to sanitize factually accurate reporting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alfonsi, 53, suggested that the show has already gone downhill since Weiss, 42, entered the fold last fall. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a feeling that the wall has come down between editorial independence and corporate interests,\u201d she added. \u201cThe concern is we\u2019re going to end up with a broadcast that looks like <i>60 Minutes<\/i> but doesn\u2019t have the courage or the character to produce <i>60 Minutes <\/i>journalism that actually matters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Alfonsi said that while she does not expect to return to<i> 60 Minutes<\/i>, she is still employed by CBS.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not resigning,\u201d she told the Times. \u201cIf they want me gone because I did my job, they\u2019ll have to fire me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>60 Minutes<\/i> veteran Pelley has himself been critical of CBS.
