Journalist Sharyn Alfonsi has called out CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss for pulling a report that was set to air on Sunday’s (December 21) 60 Minutes in what Alfonsi referred to as a “political” decision.

The 60 Minutes correspondent sent an internal memo to the CBS News team on Sunday, claiming Weiss abruptly yanked her report on the El Salvador mega-prison CECOT, focusing on men deported to the infamous facility under President Donald Trump‘s administration.
