The veteran correspondents staying at 60 Minutes are making the same mistake WaPo reporters did. 60 Minutes fate lies with viewers, not Bari Weiss or any internal deal she cut with them.

Viewers will abandon 60 Minutes just as they did WaPo because, for good reason, they no longer trust the owner.

“I’m Kid Rock.”
“I’m Naomi Wolf.”
“I’m Kanye West.”
“I’m Matt Taibbi.”
“I’m Catturd. Those stories, plus Rob Schneider, tonight on 60 Minutes.”
