His hiring kicked off a tumultuous week for the program, with top talent being fired and former network icons voicing their concerns about the direction of the program.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Now, people who have actually worked with Bilton, a former tech columnist turned documentary producer, are speaking out. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cNick is an entertaining writer,\u201d one Hollywood executive who worked with him told NBC News. \u201cThere\u2019s no doubt that he\u2019s smart. But to run \u201860 Minutes,\u2019 you have to manage people. You have to understand what good TV is, what an interesting visual presentation is.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho could have thought this is a good idea?\u201d the executive added.<\/p>\n<p>Another former colleague of Bilton\u2019s said his hiring was \u201ca head-scratcher for me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One person who worked with him on documentaries told NBC News that he was \u201creally good and energetic,\u201d but when asked if he was qualified for the role, they said, \u201cLord, no!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some former colleagues did have positive things to say, though. Evelyn Rusli, who worked with Bilton at The New York Times, described him as \u201can earnest, serious journalist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo I think Nick is an unconventional choice? Yes,\u201d Lawrence Ingrassia, an editor at the Times during Bilton\u2019s time there, \u201cDo I think this might end up being an inspired choice? Also, yes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Representatives for CBS News did not immediately respond to the Daily Beast\u2019s request for comment. <\/p>\n<p>Iconic <i>60 Minutes<\/i> correspondent Scott Pelley, 68, was fired just hours after voicing concerns about the direction of the storied program under Bilton, 49, and Weiss, 42. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=847\">NASCAR Legend\u2019s Widow Breaks Silence on His Death<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since his firing, Pelley has said Weiss pushed him to include \u201cfalsehoods and bias\u201d in his reporting, and called her behavior \u201ccold and callous and beneath the dignity of CBS News.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pelley also accused CBS News of attempting to \u201ccurry favor with the Trump administration,\u201d especially as its owner, Trump-friendly billionaire David Ellison, seeks regulatory approval for an $81 billion acquisition of Warner Bros.<\/p>\n<p>Weiss\u2019 leadership at <i>60 Minutes <\/i>has faced severe pushback from longtime producers, many of whom have quit or been forced out. <\/p>\n<p>Her last-minute decision to shelve a <i>60 Minutes <\/i>segment on the conditions at CECOT, the infamous El Salvadoran mega-prison where the Trump administration sent deportees, made staff particularly irate.<\/p>\n<p>Before Pelley was fired by Bilton \u201cfor cause,\u201d Weiss fired correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi, who clashed with Weiss over the shelved CECOT segment, and correspondent Cecilia Vega. <\/p>\n<p>Longtime correspondent Anderson Cooper also left on his own accord earlier this year. <\/p>\n<p>Just three of the seven correspondents from the last season of <i>60 Minutes<\/i> remain: Lesley Stahl, Bill Whitaker, and Jon Wertheim. <\/p>\n<p>In a letter to staff, they wrote that they were working to \u201cbuild trust\u201d with Bilton and to \u201ctry to repair and preserve\u201d the reputation of the storied program.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cIf we can continue doing the work that made this show what it is \u2014 committing acts of independent, fearless journalism and storytelling \u2014 we\u2019re here for it,&#8221; they wrote. \u201cIf not, we leave.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=845\">Usha Vance Rushes to Defend SCOTUS Justices as Trump Ramps Up Attacks<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newly installed 60 Minutes executive producer Nick Bilton is getting some harsh feedback from former employees who worked with him.
